Following Him in the storm

The rain pours down
The lightning strikes
The thunder cracks

These are all signs of a storm and lately I have been going through a lot.

Let me put it this way my life has basically fallen apart and I feel like I do not have a lot to live for, the only thing that has stayed true in my life is God himself

God gives us trials or storms if you will to make us stronger to help us grow in our faith and although they are hard, if we make it through it is worth the pain.

Recently I was at Downtown for a singing service and this guy spoke of us being a storm for Christ it was a little weird but it touched me on the insides.

Everytime there is a storm in our life we blame God, curse God, and run away from him, but we have to know that he is right there with us facing the storm with us.

So everytime we have trials remember the Lord is our refuge.

HE is good
HE is GOD

I AM THAT I AM

Hey C.J.
I have been writing to you repeatedly. Where have you been?
I was going through a time of depression a few weeks ago. It was truly a chemical depression. At one time, I had seven hours of sleep in three days.
So, I did not need people giving me more trouble. But, there they were; just compounding my anxiety.
Hope you are feeling better.
Come over to my "Journaling For Growth" blog for a visit.
I'll look forward to introducing you to some more bloggers.
Jim
