Summary: It is wintertime in Iowa. A few days ago, we had a terrible snowstorm. We had several inches of snow and there were high drifts covering the roads. I do not like this kind of weather, but my dog, Gretchen, loves the snow. She enjoys playing in the snow and jumping over the drifts.<br> As the snow was coming down and the wind was blowing, I was thinking about all the bad things that could happen because of the storm. Then I looked at Gretchen. She was lying on her back on the floor, sound asleep. She wasnt worried at all. This made me stop and think about God and His protection. God was with us during that storm, just as He is every other day of our lives.<br> In our Bible Reading today, Jesus and His disciples faced a storm on a lake. The disciples thought that they would drown. But Jesus was asleep during the storm. He woke up and calmed the wind and the waves.<br> Maybe you will face problems in your life today. Depend on God to take care of you.
