Mark 4:39-40

Have you ever had a coach or a teammate who could instantly bring peace and order to a chaotic situation?  Jesus was that guy for His disciples.

Mark records a remarkable story at chapter 4 and verses 39 through 41, “He got up, rebuked the wind and said to the waves, ‘Quiet!  Be still!’  Then the wind died down and it was completely calm.  He said to his disciples, ‘Why are you so afraid?  Do you still have no faith?’”

In the middle of a furious storm, Jesus was sleeping below the deck of the boat.  The panic-stricken disciples woke Him up and thought He didn’t care that they were about to die.  Jesus calmly dealt with the situation and brought calm from the chaos.

As you compete today, there may be times when chaos and turmoil try to take over your team.  There will certainly be some stormy situations that could wreck your team’s ship.  Who will be the one to restore peace and to speak to the situation?

You can be the person on your team to speak to the chaotic situation in order to restore order.  Be the one who says, “Quiet!  Be still!” to the situation that’s bringing fear to your teammates.  Speak confidently and lead your team to a great victory.
