In most of our readings today we hear about windstorms. Let's start with the Psalm. Psalm 107 is a poem about a series of catastrophes that people find themselves in: lost out in the desert, locked behind iron bars, near death's door, hungry and thirsty. In the section that we sang today they are out at sea, stuck in a windstorm. In each of these sections of the Psalm, after describing the disaster, God saves the people from whatever danger threatens them. Then the Psalmist says, "Let them give thanks to the Lord for his mercy and the wonders he does for his children."
