Lessons in the storm...

When we learn from a disturbance in our life that comes with great turbulence, could be raging and unpredictable. With an ending result after the storm has passed with us coming out stronger on the other side.

Sunday morning is here, and "now" is what we have. Question is, what are we going to do with it?

Storms of life resonated with me this morning. We've all experienced those storms. Some may be going through one right now? Identify that it is a storm and knowing that it will pass is paramount when we're facing it or in the midst of it. Keeping it real, none of us want to stand in the middle of a storm. However, understanding that storms are coming and preparation is key, to getting through them is where we're landing this morning. Champions, being prayed up and in God's word daily will supply the essentials we need when that storm arrives. You may not currently be in a storm, and for that peace be multiplied. This could be the calm before the storm for many, as well. Lean in...if preparation wasn't important Jesus wouldn't have walked this earth for 33 years. He knew the storm was coming but he prepared and walked through it with our Heavenly Father. Storms will come and sometimes the aftermath is catastrophic. Identifying the lesson in the storm, certainly makes clean up and restoration much easier. Put your faith and trust in the one that calmed the sea and can control the storm. We're in this together, let's pray for one another and rise above those storms!

In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.

Zephaniah 3:17
