Have you ever had a weather report sound something like this: “National Weather report for our area; "An outbreak of severe thunderstorms is expected across the area tonight. Widespread damaging winds and large hail... as well as isolated tornadoes will be possible."?
Life can throw us many different types of storms. There are thunderstorms, financial storms, health storms, relationship storms and more. What do you do when you hear that a storm is coming? Do you panic, loose hope, fall apart or give up? It’s totally understandable to be concerned. What if you turned to the Lord? When the storm is coming, you can go to His promises for comfort, reassurance, security and confidence.
Psalm 116:6 “The LORD protects those of childlike faith; I was facing death, and He saved me.”
Psalm 121:8 “The LORD keeps watch over you as you come and go, both now and forever.”
When bad news comes, trust the One who is steering the ship through the rough waters.
Psalm 112:7 “They do not fear bad news; they confidently trust the LORD to care for them.”
Even if we leave this earth, we are better off. (If we are living in God's will.)
John 14:3 “When everything is ready, I will come and get you, so that you will always be with Me where I am.” (J.C.)
So why let fear overcome you? God is always with us.
Psalm 56:4 “I praise God for what He has promised. I trust in God, so why should I be afraid? What can mere mortals do to me?”
Isaiah 41:13 “For I hold you by your right hand—I, the LORD your God. And I say to you, 'Don't be afraid. I am here to help you.”
Lord thank you that you love us and watch over us. Thank you that you hold us by the hand and are with us to help. You are worthy of all Praise.
