I think you would all agree with me when I say that the weather conditions all over the world are frightening. I mean we have massive earthquakes in multiple countries, catastrophic tornado's in Alabama, flooding in the Midwest, and blizzards on the East Coast. These are scary times we are living in for a lot of people.
As a Christian I know that we are feeling the labor pains from a world that is ready to bring forth a Messiah to deliver us from all of the pain and sorrow that this world holds for us.
Even so...
Come Lord Jesus come.
I have been uttering this piece of scripture alot lately. The mental tornado's of this life have caught me up in a whirl wind of emotions and have deposited me in a vast blizzard of depair. The quake of lifes many events have shaken me to my very core and left me in flood of tears.
In all of this I have forgotten where my one true hope lies.
I have a Saviour.
I have to trust that His will for my life is best... and even though I know this.. I still find it so hard to ask Him for His will to be done because what if His will for my life includes taking my Dad home right now?
I can't except that... yet I have to.
I need to remember that He who stirred up the storm is also my hiding place in it. Storms will come...... they always do. There is no getting around them. Jesus knew a storm was coming when He sent the disciples away, but He was with them in that storm. And I know He will be with me as well.
