Jesus, rebuked the disciples for being fearful. How should they have responsed to the storm?

Jesus rightfully rebuked the disciples for being fearful because He felt disappointed that they were still lacking in faith and confidence in Him. Their response to the storm should have been that of fearlessness and faith because Jesus, their Lord and God was there with them - in their boat - albeit asleep - He was the Master of all the Heavens and the Earth -everything obeyed Him .... and with Him there they should not have feared death....

Why did Jesus seem to discourage the Scribe and the disciple from following Him? Didn`t He want these two to join Him?

Jesus welcomed all who wanted to follow Him - infact he called many - but in the case of the Scribe and the disciple, I think he was testing their faith - were they willing to face the hardships that His followers had in store for themselves...He the Lord had no roof over His head - no place to call His own to lay His Head at the end of the day - He wanted them to know that they had to be prepared to face a lot of difficulties if they were to follow Him.

Since we have God`s promise of support, why do we still worry?

We still worry inspite of God's promises because we think about our loved ones who are not as strong and trusting as we are and we try to store earthly goods for them. We should realise that God loves them more than we do and can provide better for them than we can.
