I came across this picture this week and was amazed by it. This is a storm rolling in and if you look closely there is a small sail ship heading right for it. I could only imagine the fear in the people on the sail boat, wondering how they would make it through this storm...I feel like that with this past year...how did I make it through, how did I survive this past year? So many thing happened and there where at times storms that I had no idea how to get through. But with GOD on my side and leading the way we made it through. Sometimes the boat was almost destroyed, we still made it. Sometimes I feel like I'm standing on the shore looking out across the ocean to see a large storm heading right for me....some storms take awhile to make it to shore, others roll across quickly....but no matter what storm we're facing I cling to Christ. It's that simple...in all things, I cling to Him. I don't know what the new year will bring, but I hope it's joy, peace and blessings to all of our lives. We will have storms...you can count on it, but know who you'll cling to!
Happy New Year to you and your families! Celebrate the small things that have gotten you to this place and realize that better things are to come when you take the time to be thankful! I'm thankful for each of you and how your lives have influenced mine.

This picture brings to mind the story in the book of Mark of the apostles in the boat during a storm and of their fear and how Jesus was calmly sleeping. When they woke Him up He just simply said, "Hush now!" and there was perfect peacefulness. He is truly our Anchor during the storms of life. Diana Brown
