GOD will see us through

We have experienced a fairly significant storm overnight, and, if you don't really know me, I will share that I am not a fan of rain events, especially at night. As a child, I was terrified of thunderstorms. When a thunderstorm arose, I would go and hide in a closet or under the bed, wherever I could find my "safe place".

As a father, I have two younger ones that don't like thunderstorms. They are not to the extreme that I was but they are definitely not fans. And, I don't really like them, now, either, but, I have come to realize that they are a natural part of the weather cycle that we experience on this earth. And, while I don't really like them, I know that GOD will see us through them.

Today's word is Ecclesiastes 3:1, NIV, which reads, "There is a time for everything, and a season for every activity under the heavens."

As much as I like bright, sunny, calm, mild days, there have to be thunderstorms occasionally. How would I ever know how nice the good days are, if I never had to experience days that weren't so nice? While I don't like the stormy days at all, they remind me that the nice, calm, sunny, mild days are also ahead, just as they are in life.

In our lives, we will experience the nice, calm, sunny days. We will also experience those days that just seem to never end and try us from daybreak to sunset. On those stormy days, we can know that there are better days ahead, the sun will shine again, GOD will see us through.

Be Blessed,
