“Then he got in the boat, his disciples with him. The next thing they knew, they were in a severe storm. Waves were crashing into the boat—and he was sound asleep!”

Matthew 8:23-25 (The Message)

Life can indeed be overwhelming at times, and it can also be unpredictable. You may have started the day singing, but after a few hours at work, you are coming home mad to the bone. You could have gone to the doctor for a basic check-up and come to find out you are diagnosed with a terminal disease. You could be driving to the grocery store, and someone has chosen your car to get into an accident with. As you are going about your day, you receive a phone call that you dread hearing about your children or loved ones. You woke up in the morning expecting good things to happen, then you see on television that the whole world market is tanking, including your portfolio. What do you do when negative things suddenly pop their ugly head into your life when you least expect it? How would you respond to that?
