In a boat, the disciples did sail
When a storm came and caused them to wail
But Jesus arose
And the wind He did close
Showing His power that would never fail

Potential actions to take in response

One practical way to respond to the teaching of Mark 4.35-end is to reflect on how we handle challenging situations in our own lives. Just as the disciples faced a fierce storm while crossing the sea, we all encounter storms or difficulties at some point. Take a moment to consider how you react when faced with uncertainty or fear. Do you panic and lose hope, like the disciples initially did? Or do you try to remain calm and trust that things will work out, even when it seems impossible?

You can also think about the importance of having faith and trusting in something greater than yourself. Whether it’s believing in your own resilience, the support of loved ones, or something spiritual, having faith can provide strength and comfort during tough times.

Another practical response could be to reach out and offer support to someone who is going through a difficult time. Just as Jesus calmed the storm and brought peace to his disciples, we can strive to bring comfort and reassurance to those around us who may be struggling.

By reflecting on these ideas and taking practical steps to apply them in our lives, we can begin to embody the lessons found in this passage.
