Storm passing through? |
Story of the day: Storm passing through?
There's a story about a family that was in the middle of a great storm. A tornado was off in the distance and the father was doing everything that he could possibly do to prepare his family for what was about to happen. The father gathered a flashlight, a mattress, and headed his family straight into the basement.
He had his kids and wife kneel beside the basement wall and he placed the mattress over his their heads. As the father watched out of a tiny window to see the tornado approaching, a scared little boy ran to his father and held on to him with all of his might. You see, the boy had the right idea. In the midst of this storm, the little boy thought that he would be the safest when he was holding on tight to his daddy. He didn't care about anything else, but wanting his daddy to take care of him.
Are you experiencing any storms in your life? Have the winds from the tornados tossed you in all directions? If so, run and hold on tight to your daddy, because he will take care of you and protect you, even through the toughest storms.
Quote of the day: William Cowper
"God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform. He plants his footsteps in the sea, and rides upon the storm."
Bible verse of the day: Proverbs 10:25 (The Message)
"When the storm is over, there's nothing left of the wicked; good people, firm on their rock foundation, aren't even fazed."
Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father,
You have spoken to me this weekend about storms of life. Father, I pray that I too like the little boy in the story when faced with a storm, will cling to You for protection. It is during the storms of my life that You will protect me from harm and will see me through it to the very end. I can find rest in the midst of chaos because You are there. Thank You for loving me through it all.
In Jesus Name I pray,
Amen
