Gospel Reflection: Mark 4:35-41

In this Gospel, the disciples panic as a storm threatens to overwhelm their boat. Meanwhile, Jesus sleeps peacefully,unfazed by the chaos. When they wake Him, He calms the storm with a simple command, asking, "Why are you so frightened? How is it that you have no faith?"

This passage reminds us that Jesus is always with us, even in life’s storms. Though challenges may seem overwhelming, we are never alone. Let us trust in His constant presence and find peace in knowing that He can calm both the storm around us and within us.
