In the Gospel of Luke chapter 8, we learn that one day as the disciples crossed the Sea of Galilee, a great storm arose to threaten their lives. Christ was asleep in the stern while the waves raged. Pastor David teaches us in today’s message that the Lord God allows the tempest to roar sometimes. It is in these seasons of trail and testing that the Lord proves who He is. This is also when we become more like Jesus. It is only through the fire of pain and suffering that we are refined and made into something as precious as pure gold.
