Reflections with Andy - Luke 8: 22-25 - Who is This?

In Luke 8:22–25, Jesus calms a storm while the disciples panic, leaving them in awe and asking, “Who is this, that even the winds and waves obey him?” That’s the heart of the story—not just the calm after the chaos, but the question of who Jesus really is. Some of us grew up seeing God mainly as mighty and holy, while others saw him mostly as close and tender—but the truth is, he’s both. He’s the Lord of creation who commands the seas, and he’s also the God who walks beside us in love. Our response, like Kierkegaard said, is “fear and trembling”—awe that such a powerful God would draw so near. Today, remember both sides: pray bold prayers because he’s able, and rest in his calm because he’s with you.
