Terrified of Jesus

November 6th, 2016 · No Comments

Mark 4:41 (New Living Translation)

The disciples were absolutely terrified. “Who is this man?” they asked each other. “Even the wind and waves obey him!”

This is the reaction of the followers of Jesus. These men had been walking with Jesus daily for many months. Yet, they were terrified when they saw Him.

Is the appearance of Jesus terrifying or welcome. It is easy for me to sit here and say how overjoyed I would be if Jesus were to walk in, sit next to me, and drink coffee. Perhaps, however, I would have the same reaction as those men who knew Him. Perhaps I would be terrified.
