Is Jesus in Your Boat? – Robert Schaetzle

And a great windstorm arose, and the waves were breaking into the boat, so that the boat was already filling. But he was in the stern, asleep on the cushion. And they woke him and said to him, “Teacher, do you not care that we are perishing?” Mark 4:37-38 ESV

I’ve been on the Sea of Galilee, but on a warm calm sunny day, unlike what the apostles were experiencing in the above passage. The experience I had was never with wind gales and groundswells. Water was not sinking our boat. However, I have been in open ocean waters with heavy ground swells, and I’ve often wondered… how could our Lord find such calm to be able to sleep in the midst of such bad weather?

Our life experiences develop in us a need to try and control our circumstances. However, when the storms of life come along, we don’t have the capacity in our own strength to make things go away.

The scene for the apostles and for us is a lesson that God gives for us to learn from. As we live out adverse experiences, Jesus truly is in our boat. The power of His presence in us and for us… is always there! Jesus is never away or asleep, but is there for us to recognize… ‘Greater is He that is in us than he that is in the world.’

Father, when storm waves appear, I must be confident to recognize that no matter how high those waves, the preeminence of your presence is far greater than the highest wave of adversity before me. You never take naps or vacations, but your Holy Spirit is abiding, always with grace and wisdom to intercede for me. Thank you for being in my boat. AMEN.

"After reading your book, and being that I’m a cop, the evidence was compelling so the choice became easy. Thank you for being a big part of saving my life and seeing the truth about Jesus. My life has drastically changed for the better!!! I’ve handed out many of your books already, and can hardly wait to give more away! Thank you. And God bless!"

"For anyone on the fence, backsliding, or doubtful this book clarifies misunderstandings, perceived contradictions, and outright lies. I was led to read this book at a time when I thought I was over Jesus, but truth defeat lies every time and never forsakes the believer.”

"If false, Christianity is an irrelevant hoax. If true, Christianity is the most important fact for every human being. This little book concisely shows you why Christianity is true and what that means for you. No fluff, just the facts!" Dr. Frank Turek author/co-author of I Don’t Have Enough Faith to Be an Atheist
