EVERYONE HAS A STORM STORY

Every one has a storm story. Jesus had been ministering to crowds of thousands all day. He was weary. He told the disciples to get the boat ready .. He was going up the mountain and spend some time with the Father and then they would go to the other side. He got on the boat went below and took a nap. A bad storm came up and the disciples thought they were going to die.. They came and woke him up asking him if he did not care they were going to die. They had just watched him feed 5 thousand people with a small sack lunch and speak words of life and yet could not speak words of faith. Jesus calmed the sea and they made it to the other side. There is another side when you pass through the storm friends and what waited on the other side was a man in desperate need of help. There is someone waiting on the other side of your storm my friends who is desperate for help. This man was the madman of the tombs. He was tormented day and night with a legion of demons who lived in his body. He was a savage man who caused much damage to the people of the village as well as himself. He was strong enough to break chains and could not be contained. Jesus told the devil to go and the devil argued with him how he had no right to make them go. Jesus did not argue back he only waited and told them to go again. You see they did not want to leave the man's body. A demon only has expression if he inhabits a human or animal body. They left and went into the pigs. The pigs had enough sense that they killed themselves rather than live with them. The next time you see the man he is dressed sitting talking with his right mind to Jesus. You would think the people in the village would be happy the man was sane no longer tormented and now a useful member of society would you not? But no.... Those pigs were their paycheck and they wanted him out of Dodge. I am running around bushes... My point is the disciples had a physical storm, the madman had a spiritual storm and they all came out winners on the other side. When you are going through a storm that looks as if it will take you out remember on the other side is someone only you can minister to and they need the deliverance only you can bring...soooooo enjoy your storm story, God bless Linda
