22 But Jesus told him, "Follow me. Let the dead bury their own dead." 23 Jesus got into a boat. His disciples followed him. 24 Suddenly a terrible storm came up on the lake. The waves crashed over the boat. But Jesus was sleeping. 25 The disciples went and woke him up. They said, "Lord! Save us! We're going to drown!" 26 He replied, "Your faith is so small! Why are you so afraid?" Then Jesus got up and ordered the winds and the waves to stop. It became completely calm. 27 The disciples were amazed. They asked, "What kind of man is this? Even the winds and the waves obey him!"
