Are You In The Storm? Stay Focused…

Good morning beautiful people, good morning. Yesterday, as I was driving and the snow and freezing rain was hitting my windshield, I couldn’t stop thinking how quickly storms hit our lives. One day it almost seems like springtime has arrived and then another storm hits.
It is so comforting to know that no matter what is going on in our lives, we can hold on to every promise that is ours through the hope we have in Christ Jesus. He truly is the anchor of our soul.
As I traveled slowly, but confidently down the steep hills and winding turns, I kept focused on the road ahead of me. I finally reached my destination, my home. As I put my vehicle in the garage, the ice began to melt and fall away immediately. The storm was now behind me.
This early morning I listen to the winds as they blow profusely outside my window, it is so comforting to know whether today there will be another storm, or the sun will shine, we don’t face it alone. God’s Word tells us He will never leave us nor forsake us. (Hebrews 13:5) Let’s pray.
Father, thank you for your Word. Thank you that all things work together for good for those who are in Christ Jesus. (Romans 8:28) Whether we are in the eye of the storm or we are smoothly sailing across the sea of life, you are journeying with us. Nothing can separate us from your love, nothing.
Father, Romans 8:35-39 tell us Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall trouble or hardship or persecution or famine or nakedness or danger or sword? As it is written: “For your sake we face death all day long; we are considered as sheep to be slaughtered. No, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I am convinced that neither death nor life, neither angels nor demons, neither the present nor the future, nor any powers, neither height nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, will be able to separate us from the love of God that is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”
Thank you for your love. You bring every person that will journey life with you to the other side of the storm. The sun will shine once again in their lives. You are the same God who tells the winds to blow, the snow to fall and the sun to shine and you have your eye on us today. God, may we never forget it, no matter what part of the winding road or steep hill we are on. Amen
Have a blessed day beautiful people. Stay focused on the promises of God, He will bring you through.
P.S. God, could this be the last snow storm for this season? We are waiting for the beautiful flowers to bloom once again. Yes, I will stay focused…
