平靜風浪
為什麼膽怯?你們還沒有信心嗎?—馬可福音4章40節
我三歲的侄女開始明白,在任何情況下都可以信靠耶穌。在一個雷雨交加的夜晚,她在睡前禱告時,緊握雙手,閉上眼睛,說:「親愛的耶穌,我知道祢與我們同在,我知道祢愛我們。我也知道當祢叫暴風停止,就會停止。」
我猜她最近剛聽過耶穌平靜風浪的故事。那時耶穌和門徒乘船橫渡加利利海,耶穌在船尾睡著了,忽然起了暴風,他們的船幾乎被掀翻。門徒驚慌地叫醒耶穌,說:「我們喪命,祢不顧嗎?」但耶穌沒有回答他們,而是斥責風浪:「住了吧!靜了吧!」(馬可福音4章38-39節)
剎那間,狂風止息、波浪平靜。在一片寂靜中,耶穌對門徒說:「為什麼膽怯?你們還沒有信心嗎?」(40節)我能想像,當時門徒瞪大雙眼,鬍鬚濕透,臉上還有水滴滑落,一臉震驚地望著耶穌。
今天,若我們也存著當時門徒對耶穌的敬畏之心而生活,那會怎麼樣呢?若我們對耶穌的權柄和能力有新的認知,以此面對每一個挑戰,那會怎麼樣呢?或許,那時我們孩童般單純的信心能驅散心中的恐懼。又或許,我們會相信,我們面對的每一場風暴都在祂的掌控之中。
反思和禱告
你如何重新感受到耶穌是如此奇妙?
求祢加添我的信心。
Calming the Storm
Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?
My three-year-old niece is beginning to understand that she can trust Jesus in any situation. One night as she prayed before bedtime during a thunderstorm, she pressed her hands together, closed her eyes, and said, “Dear Jesus, I know You’re here with us. I know You love us. And I know that the storm will stop when You tell it to stop.”
I suspect she had recently heard the story of Jesus and the disciples as they crossed the Sea of Galilee. It’s the one where Jesus fell asleep in the back of the boat just before a squall nearly capsized the vessel. The disciples woke Him and said, “Don’t you care if we drown?” Jesus didn’t speak to them but instead addressed the natural world: “Quiet! Be still!” (Mark 4:38-39).
Immediately the water stopped splashing into the boat. The howling wind subsided. There in the silence, Jesus looked at His followers and said, “Why are you so afraid? Do you still have no faith?” (v. 40). I imagine their wide eyes staring back at Him as water coursed down their faces and dripped from their beards.
What if we could live today with the awe the disciples felt in that moment? What if we could view every concern with a fresh awareness of Jesus’ authority and power? Maybe then our childlike faith would chase away our fear. Maybe then we would believe that each storm we face is at His mercy.
Reflect & Pray
What are the barriers to faith in your life? How can you recapture a sense of wonder of Jesus?
Dear Jesus, please increase my faith as I meditate on Your power and presence.
