Who is then is this whom even wind and sea obey?

“Then he asked them, ‘Why are you terrified? Do you not yet have faith?’ They were filled with great awe and said to one another, ‘Who then is this whom even wind and sea obey?’” (MK 4: 40-41)

We have all kinds of “wind and sea” problems. Problems with jobs, and problems with homes and neighbors, with school for our children and their decision, sometimes we have difficult times within our relationship with spouses. But, our Lord is the One, Whom “even wind and the sea obey,” and when we put trust in Him, He can make everything calm.
