I have spoken to you of the rough seas and the harsh winds, and I have witnessed as these have recently buffeted you about and have been most pleased that, as my modern day apostles, each one of you was quick to regain your composure and to return to your spiritual seat and to once again take up the task of pulling at the oars together.

===Lesson===
It is indeed an incredible miracle to witness material beings such as yourselves overcoming material obstacles so quickly and remaining in your spiritual perspective, to regain your composure and to be calmed by your spiritual relationships. You have been prepared and that is well; you have heeded the lessons; you have understood the teachings. Now your focus may be given to the forward momentum of the task at hand, regardless of the material surroundings and the transient weather patterns, which at times may seem overwhelming and at other times may provide you with peace and calm. You are coming to realize that these transient weather events are separate and aside from your overall function and mission. [You are] gaining perspective to realize that these events are temporary and will pass quickly.
