“And the wind dropped
and all was calm again”
We can relate to the feelings of the disciples in the boat in today’s Gospel story. There are times when we, too, can feel overcome by fear, worry or anxiety. But just as he calmed the wind and sea, so the Lord calms our fears and anxiety. His presence is always with us, and he will grant us all the strength and courage we need to guide us daily on our pilgrim journey.
