Matthew 8:18-27

18Now when Jesus saw a large crowd around him, he gave orders to go to the other side of the lake.

19Then an expert in the law came to him and said, “Teacher, I will follow you wherever you go.”

20Jesus said to him, “Foxes have dens, and the birds in the sky have nests, but the Son of Man has no place to lay his head.”

21Another of the disciples said to him, “Lord, let me first go and bury my father.”

22But Jesus said to him, “Follow me, and let the dead bury their own dead.”

23As he got into the boat, his disciples followed him.

24And a great storm developed on the sea so that the waves began to swamp the boat. But he was asleep.

25So they came and woke him up saying, “Lord, save us! We are about to die!”

26But he said to them, “Why are you cowardly, you people of little faith?” Then he got up and rebuked the winds and the sea, and it was dead calm.

27And the men were amazed and said, “What sort of person is this? Even the winds and the sea obey him!”
