And he said unto them, Why are ye fearful? have ye not yet faith? Mark 4.40.
The Lord Jesus on one occasion said to His disciples, "Let us go over unto the other side" of the Lake of Galilee; but suddenly there arose a great storm, with the waves beating into the boat so much that it was beginning to fill up. The disciples therefore awakened the sleeping Jesus and cried, "Teacher, carest thou not that we perish?" Whereupon He arose and rebuked the wind and the storm. And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm. But then the Lord rebuked the disciples by saying, "Have you not yet faith?" Do let us see that since the Lord had commanded that they all go to the other side, the disciples and Jesus would get to the other side. The wind might blow harder and the waves might rise higher; yet nothing could hinder them from reaching the other shore because the Lord had said otherwise. Accordingly, what is of utmost importance is to believe God’s word. If God says so, then that is enough; and nothing else matters.
