He asked his disciples to have a boat ready .

To keep him from being crushed .
No doubt they kept it steady .
To stop him being rushed.
Perhaps that day the lake was calm .
And the sound carried.
His voice like  soothing balm.
Their doubts and fears steadied .
Do we choose to listen.
For his voice far away .
Are we enough of a Christian.
At the end of the long  tiring day.
The secret is in the listening.
Then comes the hearing.
……..
The boat far away
Engine heard over water
In calm all peaceful
……….
