As Frank Crescitelli, New York captain explains, “one of the biggest mistakes people make is running directly for the dock whenever a storm blows up.” According to Crescitelli, “sometimes it’s better just to ride it out.” Most summer storms move quickly, he adds; “if you make slow forward headway keeping the bow into the wind, it’ll often blow right by.”...

I would fly away and be at rest. I would flee far away and stay in the desert; I would hurry to my place of shelter, far from the tempest and storm.” (Psalm 55:6-8) John Wesley wrote in his diary, “My brother Charles often said, ‘If the Lord would give me wings, I would fly.”  I used to tell him “ If the Lord wants me to fly, I will trust Him for the wings”. That is one way of looking at what to do if we had wings like the birds.  But David was thinking about another way of using them if he had wings.  He wanted to fly away from the situation to a far away place to escape his problems. Everyone who lives a norma...

Four unnamed friends convinced the paralytic man that they were determined to take him to Jesus. Imagine how their hearts must have sunk when they saw that the house Jesus stayed was packed with people. Lots of people in town had come there with their sick people and there is no way to get into house, not to mention a man on a stretcher. The men decided to climb up on the roof, break it open, and lower the paralytic down. You can only imagine the reaction of the people in the room below when the pieces and debris started falling on them. Many...
