Mark 4:36-41

Jesus keeps the disciples on their toes by doing nothing about a storm until they cry out for His help. The function of this is two-fold: first is shown that the disciples still have no idea of how much power Jesus truly has (nor will any of us ever comprehend it), and second that Jesus's power is always with us, even - or especially - when things are at their worst. We simply need to remember to call upon Him and He will provide.

He might give you a "What took you so long?" barb, but hey, He's allowed... He's Jesus.
