The Storms May Come



If you lost your house and all your belongings in a tornado last night, would you post a sign like this in your pile of rubble? 

My hat is off to the folks that made and displayed the sign.  It's one that causes us all to examine our priorities, check on our trust in God, and above all, praise him through the storm. 

Our thoughts and prayers today are for all those affected by the storms in Arkansas.  The news reports have shown us today, what the darkness of night kept hidden until sunrise. Lives were lost, other lives sustained injuries, and the citizens of our nation begin the efforts to show our concern and love. 

As I write this, I am learning of more tornadoes in Alabama and Mississippi, and we pray for those people, too.  These terrible storms are bringing havoc and destruction where people live and work.  Yes, most are determined to rebuild and not let the storms win. 

So today, I'm asking each of our readers to spend some special time in prayer for the many lives that have been touched by devastating storms.  Be ready to offer assistance where needed, if that is something within your ability.  Learn from those dear Christians that teach us the storms in our lives, whatever they be, provide us with the opportunity to continue praising our Father. 

God bless us all.
