Storms

 
Have you ever been through one of those times where it feels like God just sent you straight into a storm you didn't see coming?  I'm guessing you could probably remember a time; in fact you may be going through one right now.  Our all-seeing, all-knowing, all-powerful God just sent your little boat into a hurricane.
 
That's how the disciples probably felt when Jesus told them to go ahead of Him across a lake while He stayed behind.  They went straight into s storm in the darkness of a night they would always remember.  But they remembered it for all of the right reasons.  We know this story for all of the right reasons.
 
My hope is that this Sunday you'll have a new perspective on the storms in your life as we take a look at a little boat in a big storm and catch a glimpse of how friendship, faith and love created a night the world would never forget.
