Stilling the Storm …

In the beginning, God’s Spirit hovers over the primal waters of creation.  Those who would follow Jesus experience the trials and challenges of discipleship as though adrift on a stormy sea.  Throughout history, dark and deep, raging waters have been an archetypal symbol of chaos; one we find reflected in the turbulence of our time.  But by God’s grace, the One God sends to proclaim new life proclaims God’s power over turmoil and chaos.  As God’s prophet, Elijah experiences the gale and the torrent, earthquake and fire.  But it is in the stillness that follows that God speaks a truth for the ages.
