In this final week of the Christmas Season, we have seen the manifestation of Jesus to the Magi, the feeding of the 5,000 men plus their families, and today, his walking on water and the calming of the wind and waves. (Mk 6:45-52). The manifestations continue in very concrete fashion, feeding people and the calming of a storm, The admonition of Jesus, " Take courage, it is I, do not be afraid" and his climbing into the boat with the frightened apostles are assurances that he remains with us (Emmanuel) in all circumstances, even when we think we've reached our limit and will totally fall apart and crash. This scene, this "manifestation"of his on-going presence with us, is our continuing assurance that we will not perish.
