Into the storm we go together

Even the very best amongst us may still feel a constant anxiety in storms, of our own making or not, but then again one should always try look for some sort of spirtual guidance too so that it may strengthen and encourage ourselves. We're never alone so there's no need to get stuck on feeling lonely. The story from Acts of Paul the Apostle and Julius the Roman centurion in a storm together, has this key message: there's a true difference in being lonely and lowly. Indeed, Paul's own lowliness by staying humble and unimportant, whilst his opinion of staying in port was completely ignored, cancelled out his loneliness in opinion later on. Soon his example was followed by Julius, the Hellenic Samaritan, who saw that those decisions were indeed the clear and only way out of the storm. Thus everyone, including the crew of the ship, was ordered to stay on board, and none of the prisoners weren't allowed to be killed off by their guards. As christian and non-christian together there's nothing wrong in putting both our faiths in something higher than ourselves, in God's hands as a christian would know it. Nothing wrong even in praying to Him in need, nor in seeing His Holy Spirit in anything that crosses ones path daily as mere human beings. What else is there to be done because there's indeed no chance for a second Medusa. Oh yes, my guess is that the story behind Gericault's painting of the Medusa gives us indeed that precise impression
