And a great storm developed on the sea so that the waves began to swamp the boat. But he was asleep.

Behold, a violent storm came up on the sea, so much that the boat was covered with the waves, but he was asleep.

As they sailed, Jesus fell asleep. A storm came down on the lake. It was so bad that the boat was about to sink. They were in great danger.

A wild storm came up. Waves crashed over the boat. It was about to sink.Jesus was in the back, sleeping on a cushion. The disciples woke him up. They said,“ Teacher! Don’t you care if we drown?”

Some people sailed out on the ocean in ships. They traded goods on the mighty waters.They saw the works of the Lord. They saw the wonderful deeds he did on the ocean.He spoke and stirred up a storm. It lifted the waves high.They rose up to the heavens. Then they went down deep into the ocean. In that kind of danger the people’s boldness melted away.They were unsteady like people who have become drunk. They didn’t know what to do.

There they got into a boat and headed across the lake toward Capernaum. By now it was dark. Jesus had not yet joined them.A strong wind was blowing, and the water became rough.

Before very long, a wind blew down from the island. It had the force of a hurricane. It was called the Northeaster.The ship was caught by the storm. We could not keep it sailing into the wind. So we gave up and were driven along by the wind.We passed the calmer side of a small island called Cauda. We almost lost the lifeboat that was tied to the side of the ship.So the men lifted the lifeboat on board. Then they tied ropes under the ship itself to hold it together. They were afraid it would get stuck on the sandbars of Syrtis. So they lowered the sea anchor and let the ship be driven along.We took a very bad beating from the storm. The next day the crew began to throw the ship’s contents overboard.On the third day, they even threw the ship’s tools and supplies overboard with their own hands.The sun and stars didn’t appear for many days. The storm was terrible. So we gave up all hope of being saved.The men had not eaten for a long time. Paul stood up in front of them.“ Men,” he said,“ you should have taken my advice not to sail from Crete. Then you would have avoided this harm and loss.Now I beg you to be brave. Not one of you will die. Only the ship will be destroyed.I belong to God and serve him. Last night his angel stood beside me.The angel said,‘ Do not be afraid, Paul. You must go on trial in front of Caesar. God has shown his grace by sparing the lives of all those sailing with you.’Men, continue to be brave. I have faith in God. It will happen just as he told me.But we must run the ship onto the beach of some island.”On the 14th night the wind was still pushing us across the Adriatic Sea. About midnight the sailors had a feeling that they were approaching land.They measured how deep the water was. They found that it was 120 feet deep. A short time later they measured the water again. This time it was 90 feet deep.They were afraid we would crash against the rocks. So they dropped four anchors from the back of the ship. They prayed that daylight would come.The sailors wanted to escape from the ship. So they let the lifeboat down into the sea. They pretended they were going to lower some anchors from the front of the ship.But Paul spoke to the commander and the soldiers.“ These men must stay with the ship,” he said.“ If they don’t, you can’t be saved.”So the soldiers cut the ropes that held the lifeboat. They let it drift away.Just before dawn Paul tried to get them all to eat.“ For the last 14 days,” he said,“ you have wondered what would happen. You have gone without food. You haven’t eaten anything.Now I am asking you to eat some food. You need it to live. Not one of you will lose a single hair from your head.”After Paul said this, he took some bread and gave thanks to God. He did this where they all could see him. Then he broke it and began to eat.All of them were filled with hope. So they ate some food.There were 276 of us on board.They ate as much as they wanted. They needed to make the ship lighter. So they threw the rest of the grain into the sea.

But the Lord sent a strong wind over the Mediterranean Sea. A wild storm came up. It was so wild that the ship was in danger of breaking apart.All the sailors were afraid. Each one cried out to his own god for help. They threw the ship’s contents into the sea. They were trying to make the ship lighter. But Jonah had gone below deck. There he lay down and fell into a deep sleep.

Three times I was beaten with sticks. Once they tried to kill me by throwing stones at me. Three times I was shipwrecked. I spent a night and a day in the open sea.I have had to keep on the move. I have been in danger from rivers. I have been in danger from robbers. I have been in danger from my fellow Jews and in danger from Gentiles. I have been in danger in the city, in the country, and at sea. I have been in danger from people who pretended they were believers.

For your benefit, I am glad I was not there. Now you will believe. But let us go to him.”

“ Suffering city, you have been beaten by storms. You have not been comforted. I will rebuild you with turquoise stones. I will rebuild your foundations with lapis lazuli.

Jesus loved Martha and her sister and Lazarus.So after he heard Lazarus was sick, he stayed where he was for two more days.
