Two miracles of Jesus Christ recount His calming of storms on the Sea of Galilee, with the first appearing in Matthew 8:23-27, Mark 4:35-41, and Luke 8:22-25. On a day filled with significant teaching and testing, Jesus, wearied by incessant interruptions and accusations, seeks respite by instructing His disciples to sail to the quieter region of Perea across the Sea of Galilee. Once aboard, He falls asleep on a pillow, displaying complete trust in His Almighty Father's care and His own God-given power over the winds and sea, remaining peacefully asleep even as a sudden, terrifying storm arises. The waves beat into the boat, filling it, and the disciples, in urgency, cry out, "Master, Master!" Jesus rebukes His disciples for their fearfulness and little faith, as they have not yet fully developed trust in Him, feeling at ease only when He speaks or acts directly. Though they call on Him to save them, recognizing His supernatural power, they fail to realize that whether He is asleep or awake, He remains the Son of God. As the Son of God, with only the power of His word, Jesus speaks, and the wind ceases, bringing a great calm after the fierce storm. He addresses the storm and sea as if they were antagonistic forces under a dominating power, commanding the sea with "Peace, be still!"—a phrase meaning to be muzzled or gagged, as though restraining a maniac. The result of this miracle leaves Jesus' disciples in awe, gaining newfound understanding of the power and glory of their Lord and Master. His mighty word dwarfs the power of earthly elements, stirring them deeply with reverence, wonder, and godly fear. This event reveals what the full measure of God's Spirit can accomplish through a faithful human being, showing that the waves of the world may rage against Christ's disciples, yet they will never be overwhelmed because He is with them.
