Matthew:8:18-27
Seeker Overlay ON
*
Now when Jesus saw great crowds around him ,
he gave orders to go over to the other side .
*
And a scribe came up and said to him , "
Teacher ,
I will follow you wherever you go ."
*
And Jesus said to him , "
Foxes have holes ,
and birds of the air have nests ;
but the Son of man has nowhere to lay his head ."
*
Another of the disciples said to him , "
Lord ,
let me first go and bury my father ."
*
But Jesus said to him , "
Follow me ,
and leave the dead to bury their own dead ."
*
And when he got into the boat ,
his disciples followed him .
*
And behold ,
there arose a great storm on the sea ,
so that the boat was being swamped by the waves ;
but he was asleep .
*
And they went and woke him ,
saying , "
Save ,
Lord ;
we are perishing ."
*
And he said to them , "
Why are you afraid ,
O men of little faith ?"
Then he rose and rebuked the winds and the sea ;
and there was a great calm .
*
And the men marveled ,
saying , "
What sort of man is this ,
that even winds and sea obey him ?"
