my heart is ready.
I will sing, I will sing your praise.
Awake, my soul,
awake, lyre and harp,
I will awake the dawn!
I will thank you, Lord, among the peoples,
among the nations I will praise you
for your love reaches to the heavens
and your truth to the skies.
O God, arise above the heavens;
May your glory shine on earth!"
-Psalm 57
I heard it said that life's not about waiting for the storms to pass by; it's about learning to dance in the rain.
We all probably have a lot of storms in life. I know I do. And it can be really hard in these times to see that God is always with us. But the truth is that after we go through these dark and difficult times, we will be able to truly enjoy the light at the end of the tunnel. Things won't be this dark forever. We may not be able to see Christ next to us, or feel his hand on our shoulder. But this doesn't mean he has left us. Never.
He became human so that he could bear our human suffering with us and for us. We could never do anything alone - even if we tried to.
I pray that today you and I will find the strength we need to bear the storms of life with patience and courage. These struggles are going to make you so much stronger in the end! Peace!
