Reflection
The storm at sea offers the perfect metaphor for expressing our doubts about faith.
The power of nature can leave us feeling utterly insignificant; we are left powerless
and totally at the mercy of the elements. So too life can appear incredibly difficult
because of illness,bereavement, broken relationships and shattered dreams. At times,
the image of sailing in a small boat, on a dark night, into the eye of a storm, perfectly
describes how we are. At such times Jesus invites us to trust and it is only by doing it
that we learn how.
