Mark 4:35-41
If you have your Bible, please turn to Mark chapter 4. I want to speak to you this morning, When the Storms Meet the Savior.

And leaving the multitude, they took Him along with them just as He was, in the boat; and other boats were with Him. And there arose a fierce gale of wind, and the waves were breaking over the boat so much that the boat was already filling up. And He Himself was in the stern, asleep on the cushion; and they awoke Him and said to Him, 'Teacher, do You not care that we are perishing?'

You're either entering a storm, in a storm, or just got out of a storm to enter into another storm.'' Life is filled with difficulties and problems and storms. Job chapter 5, verse 7 says, ''Man is born for trouble as sparks fly upward.'' And the thing about troubles and problems and difficulties and storms, they can hit you when you least expect it, just as they hit the disciples that night on the Sea of Galilee. They weren't expecting a storm. It just arose.
You can be having a little pain and think it's not a whole lot of anything - maybe reflux, maybe a gall bladder. You go to the doctor and you find out you have Stage III cancer. You can get in your car after a day at work, just going to drive home, just routine like ...
