Introduction - Who in here likes storms?
2 Types of people when it comes to major storms.
Redneck in the front yard with His Camera Phone.
Serious Sally in the bath tub.
Favorite Storm Story - 69 right before Crane Exit - Major Storm, Green Skies, Hail, Drove through a vortex of debree.
Picture it .
Ethan Screaming, Kelli and Leah literally having a panic attack, me trying to drive through hail and rain and get Ethan to a bathroom.
(Id love to hear your favorite storm story after services)
Storms are inevitable, sometimes they are more severe than other times but they have a way of wrecking havoc in our lives.
Storms are temporary, they shall pass and blue skies will prevail.
Storms are necessary, they reveal what are lives are truly built on.
Parable of foolish and wise builder
If we are not careful we can find ourselves in the midst of a storm with the wrong perspective and wonder if “God really even cares”
Take a look at a passage of scripture and realize we are not alone.

Few Observations -
Experienced Fishermen on Board
They were face to face with a storm they didn't know how to navigate.
They were terrified and Afraid.
It wasn't until they were desperate and had no where else to turn that they awoke Jesus.
Why does it take us so long to get desperate?
Do you ever feel like God is asleep at the wheel?
4. Deliverance
Our God is A Delivering God - HIs Nation, Our Sin, He is always right on time...
Jesus was not upset with them waking him up
I love this picture - We don't get a clearer picture of Jesus Humanity and His Divinity.
5. Debriefing
mar
Jesus was not upset with them waking Him up.
He was upset with there lack of faith.
Some things I learned, Dont wake Kelli LOL
Fear and Faith Don’t Mix… Water & Oil
Courage stands in the Gap and Trusts God to work...
The reason your are so fearful is because you do not Trust me.
When faced with Fear and Anxiety and Worry
q.
Why am i so afraid?
q.
Why am i not trusting God?
Let’s Define Faith - Taking God at His Word and Acting Accordingly.
We walk by Faith & Not by Sight.
Faith is to be the Foundation.
Faith is to be where our behavior flows from.
Faith is to be the permeating thought of our minds.
Faith is to be the constant plea of our hearts.
Lessons From The Storm
None of us are Exempt from Storms in life, Push forward in Faith.
It gives us a picture of His Care and Power through storms of life.
A Basic Fact 23 Discipleship
How many are willing to follow him regardless of circumstances, cost, and sacrifice demand.
