Tonight's family reading · Livingstone
Jesus Calms the Storm — a 5-minute devotion for Livingstone 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.
Parents in Livingstone often ask what to do when siblings are years apart in age. Read Mark 4:35-41 together, then split the question: ask the younger child what happened in the story, and ask the older one why "peace that arrives before the storm ends" is harder than it sounds.
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: ask the same question again at breakfast tomorrow. Answers change overnight, and hearing that change is how a child learns that peace that arrives before the storm ends is something you practise, not something you know.
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?
