Description
Picture yourself in a creaky wooden boat, rocking on a dark, restless lake. The wind howls through the ropes on the boat, waves crash over the sides and cold water soaks your clothes while it pools around your boots. You cling to the edge where you notice your heart hammering and your breath shallow. You realize you are thinking "This is it—I am not making it out."
Now imagine someone is with you sprawled out in the back, sound asleep, head on a cushion, as if the chaos is but a lullaby. This story is not just about a stormy night; it is about the fear and anxiety that hit us all. Further, the story describes what Jesus does when we are sure we are going under.
Author Kevin Carson considers the wonderful person of Jesus and how He is able to bring peace and harmony into the lives of ordinary people when they turn away from sin, trust Him to forgive them, and begin the lifelong journey of following Him.
