He sleeps in a storm

There is a story in Mitch Albom's book, Have a little faith from the Rabbi's sermon in 1975. It goes something like this.
A man is applying for a job on a farm. He is a man of few words, but offers the farmer a reference letter which states, "He sleeps in a storm." The farmer desperate for help hires the hand. After several weeks a powerful storm comes through the valley.
The farmer awakens with a stir and calls out to his new hired hand. The man is sound asleep with no hopes of awakening.
The farmer runs out to check the barn, the fields, and the silo. He finds all of the animals, grain and hay have been properly taken care of and all was well.
The farmer realized what the letter meant. "He sleeps in a storm" (pg. 93).

This is a great message for us all to realize that if we do all that is required in a day, we will all sleep well.

It reminds me of the story of Jesus in the boat with the disciples when the storm came up. They were afraid and panicked. They could not figure out how Jesus could sleep during the storm. Could this parable be one which teaches us to keep our side of the street clean, to do what is required, to make amends instantly; so when a storm arises in our mind and in our life, we can sleep knowing all is well. We will experience a peace that surpasses understanding.

In my personal life, I know I sleep soundly when I have addressed issues and made amends when need be and when I have finished and completed the work of the day. It is also beneficial for me to connect with God daily in prayer and meditation.
