Your Savior & the storms

Do you find yourself today standing in the middle of a storm? A financial storm...a sickness storm...a relationship storm? Do the winds of fear swirl around you? Is guilt about to blow you over? I really appreciated the advice I received a long time ago from author, David Garland.

There are no stormless seas and all sailors must learn to expect the unexpected.  Chaos hits our lives and it can all happen so quickly.  One moment all is well and then, in a flash, all is hell.  Reading Mark (4:35-41) helps one learn to trust in a Savior who does not deliver us from storms but through the storms.
