Tonight's family reading · Mati
Jesus Calms the Storm — a 5-minute devotion for Mati families
Mark 4:35-41 · Peace that arrives before the storm ends
Wind tore at the boat and water poured in while Jesus slept on a cushion. The disciples woke him, terrified. He stood, said three words to the wind, and the lake went glassy still.
This works best in Mati as a bedtime reading. Lights low, Mark 4:35-41 read slowly, the memory verse said twice, then the prayer. Younger children fall asleep on "peace that arrives before the storm ends"; older ones usually want to argue about it first, which is fine.
Memory verse
“Quiet! Be still!”Mark 4:39
Table question
What is making your heart feel stormy tonight?
30-second prayer
Jesus, you spoke and the water went still. Speak that same peace over this house tonight. Amen.
Make it stick: on the way through Mati tomorrow, one person says the first half of "Quiet! Be still!" and someone else finishes it. Three tries and it is memorised.
Tomorrow: Jesus heals a man nobody could help (Mark 5:1-20). ArkQuest queues the next reading automatically, so nobody has to decide what comes after tonight.
On Mount Carmel, Elijah rebuilt an altar of twelve stones before calling on the Lord. What did the twelve stones represent?
