You cannot always select the “storm” in your life, but you can always trust Jesus to get you through it.

When we were done praying one of the teachers looked at me and said,
“Are you all right? Your face looks flushed.” 

The more I stood there the wobblier my legs got. Finally one of the
teachers said, “Let's take him inside and get him some water.” In the 
meantime, one called my wife to come and get me. 

I do not remember going into the school at the time. Everything was
quite dizzy for me. Then the nurse came, checked me out and made sure I 
was okay. 

As it was, I was having a heat stroke. I never had such a thing before
in my life. I think I heard of them, but I did not know what they were. 


As I was collecting myself a little bit, my wife and granddaughter
arrived to take me home. They would not let me drive my own vehicle. 
Don't tell anybody, but I sure was glad. I am not sure I could have 
driven that vehicle out of the parking lot. 

It took several days to recover, but during recovery, I could not help
but think of an incident with Jesus in the midst of the storm. “And he 
arose, and rebuked the wind, and said unto the sea, Peace, be still. 
And the wind ceased, and there was a great calm” (Mark 4:39). 

You cannot always select the “storm” in your life, but you can always
trust Jesus to get you through it.
