Do you not care that we are perishing?
Sunday, June 23
“Do you not care that we are perishing?” The disciples cry out to Jesus, who is asleep during the storm.
Inevitably, we will go through storms. We will encounter hard times and observe terrible situations in the world. We will wonder where God is in the midst of all of this. Is Jesus sleeping? During these times, we or those whom we love will cry out to God: “Do you not care that we are perishing?”
A reflection on possible answers to one of life’s most haunting questions.
