Today's Bible reading is the 4th chapter of the Book of Mark. You can read it here at Bible Gateway: http://www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Mark+4&version=NASB

In the final verse of today's chapter we read this question that is asked regarding the person of Jesus. "Who then is this, that even the wind and the sea obey Him?" It really is a great and incredible question. The disciples had just witness Jesus rebuke "a fierce gale of wind" to make it calm. And to a sea that was producing waves that were breaking over the boat and filling it with water, He said, "hush, be still" and it became perfectly calm. It must have been an unimaginable site to have seen. The wind and the sea did not simply gradually slow down and calm but at His word the obeyed in a moment. As incredible as the question was, the answer seems greater. The wind and the sea were compelled to obey Him because He was their creator. God the Son was in the boat that day. Praise the Lord that He still rebukes the winds and calms "our seas" today. "Who then is this"? He is "the Christ, the Son of the Living God."
