We are often called to do certain things of faith, and quite often we believe that we understand why we are doing them only to find that the Lord has an entirely different plan, and purpose. It is for this reason I like the story of Jesus calming the sea. In this story the disciples think they are simply crossing the sea to continue Christ’s ministry, but soon find that this voyage is much more than that. Haven’t we all found that what we felt was a trip towards salvation and eternity when we first accepted Jesus as our Lord, has become much much more than that?
