So you say ... you have a CRISIS?
Today's Gospel was wonderfully illustrated by Rembrandt van Rijn. The 27-year-old painter showed the storm on the Sea of Galilee in a spectacular way. The boat is flooded with the waves of the lake. Only Jesus is at peace on board. All the characters do something panic - two or three grab the ship's ropes, one is holding the sails, the third looks madly overboard, the fourth hides his face in his hands. These characters, in my opinion, reflect human thoughts very much - not only a storm at sea, but a storm in the human mind when a person experiences a problem or suffering. One who looks closely at this picture of Rembrandt will see that instead of the twelve apostles - apart from Jesus - there are thirteen figures. One of them is Rembrandt himself.
When there are storms in our lives, we are attacked, as we sing in the Lenten song, "swarms of false thoughts", we cannot deal with it. This mechanism is perfect, this tool is used by the evil spirit. He is a master in accusation and in lies. Many of our problems, many of our fears will not come true at all. Many of them are just an illusion. One of the priests, priest Stanisław, says in his memoirs that the night before his ordination as a priest was a nightmare for him. Something told him that he couldn't make it, that he was stupid, that he was making a big mistake. - Today, after many years, I look at it all with a smile, I laugh at it. Many of these fears didn't come true at all, and what I feared the most turned out to be my chance - in this, I think I was the best.
