Whenever Harriet was with them, the Creatures of the Forest had to stay quiet. They tried, several times, to interfere with Harriet 's mind. They could tell this outing wasn't good. It even caused some arguments among the Fearlings. Some said they should call for Despair to come. Others said Harriet belonged to them and they didn't want to share. Thankfully, she was blissfully unaware of the debate. Caroline dropped Harriet off at her house and it was dark in the living room when she entered. Shadows cast an eerie darkness in the corners. Little did Harriet know she was walking into a trap. Memories of her attacker flooded her mind. Fear was attacking with all of his might. "Someone is here. Look in that corner. See? You're alone with no one to help you. You never should have left the house. Now someone is here and you will never escape. Never escape Never escape " Harriet's mind began to spin. How could she be so foolish as to leave her house. "It was a foolish thing to do, leaving the house. It wasn't safe. It wasn't safe. Never do that again. I'll never do that again. It isn't safe. I have no safe place. Where can I go? No I can't go outside..." With her heart beating faster and faster she spun around the room looking in every corner. After the living room, she entered the rest of the house checking every closet and under all of the beds. Finally after she was certain no one was there, she plopped down on her couch and dissolved into tears. "I can't go on living this way," she thought. Feeling completely exhausted after so much emotion, she fell into a fitful sleep. About midnight she awoke and realized she had fallen asleep completely dressed, curled up on the couch. Her back ached and her eyes smarted from crying. Shuffling to the bathroom she heard a noise just outside her window. "What was that?" She wondered. Then another sound and then another. Each more scary than the one before. The Fearlings were having fun dropping pinecones on Harriet's roof. They knew just the reaction they could get. She was so afraid and yet one word kept coming to her mind. "Jesus " she cried. "Help me "
This book is a study on the events of Jesus walking on the water. He is The Storm Walker. Walking on the waves of the sea He called for Peter to join him. While we may never have the opportunity to walk on water as Peter did, we do have moments in our life where our faith is challenged. Storms come in many forms and they serve the same purpose in us as the did that day on the Sea of Galilee. Will you be like Peter and believe for the impossible? Remember, Jesus is in your storm. He will guide you and stay with you even when it seems that all hope is gone. He will lift you up when you fall and He will keep you from drowning. The winds and the waves obey His voice even today. Because He is The Storm Walker.
