Matteus 8,24

22 Men Jesus svarte ham, “Følg Meg, og la de døde ta seg av sine egne døde.”

23 Da Han gikk ombord i båten, fulgte disiplene Ham.

Plutselig oppsto det en voldsom storm på sjøen, så båten ble dekket av bølgene; men Jesus sov.

25 Disiplene kom til Ham og vekket Ham, og sa, “Frels oss, Herre; vi går under!”

26 Han sa til dem, “Hvorfor er dere redde, dere lite troende?” Så reiste Han seg og truet vinden og sjøen, og det ble helt stille.

Here the Bible tells a story about someone else. Ask yourself what it can say to us today. Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
