If storms are inevitable, unpredictable, and impartial, then the issue really becomes “what is my response going to be to the storms that are inevitably going to happen in my life?” Where will you turn? Where will you go? What will you do?


Main Points:

1. We can turn to Jesus in the midst of our storm. He is there. He is available. He cares. Don’t ride out the rough seas without turning to the one who can either calm the storm around you or the storm within you.

2. There will be nothing you will face for the rest of your life that you face alone.  God is with you.  Jesus is in your boat.  We tend to forget that in storms.  We think we're all alone.  We think that God is far away.

3. The disciples really had no reason to fear.  They had what every one of us have.  They had the close presence of Christ. Like the disciples, let’s turn to Christ and find God in the midst of our storm.


Today’s Scripture Verses:

James 1:2 - "When you face trials..." 

Matthew 5:45 "He sends the rain on the righteous and the unrighteous."

Mark 4:38 - “Teacher, don’t you care if we drown?”

Isaiah 43:1-2 "Fear not, for I have redeemed you.  I have called you by name, you are Mine.  When you pass through the waters, I will be with you, and when you pass through the rivers, they will not sweep over you!"
