“We may have felt that our faith was strong and could take us through any storm, but then we are blind-sided by something too big: the unexpected loss of a loved one, finding ourselves suddenly unemployed, the betrayal of someone close, a diagnosis of a serious illness, the list of possible storms seems to go on and on. Like Peter [walking on the water], our focus changed. Instead of seeing the rainbow, we were seeing the lightning and listening to the thunder. “
