ok! one quick question that i alone cannot answer. in the book of Mark, can"t think of the chapeter, Jesus is standing on the shore of the lake watching the disciples in the boat struggling through the storm. He then walks out on the water towards them but when He gets to them, He was just going to walk past them. but they saw Him and starting calling out and freaking out. now my question is...Why was Jesus going to just walk past?

if you could answer that, thatd be awesome!

i think it was a test of their faith, if they had just thought they were seeing things they would have not freaked out

Maybe He wanted them to ASK for His help?

That makes sense and how it applies to our life now! Christ knows we need him, and puts himself in our line of site, and all we have to do is ask!

To get to the other side.

Seriously, He doesn't need the boat.

Carina said...

We don't need the boat, either, if we just stay focused. Really, I think that He just shows up a lot, but if we don't acknkowlege Him, He books. Point: Acknowlege Him and He'll hang out with you. He can be the Life of the party!
