What the devil meant for evil, God meant for good. We go through trials in our lives to strengthen our faith.
Pain, loss, depression, sickness, financial hardships, stress, marital issues... all of these issues are temporary but they test our faith.
When God brings us out of the storm, we are equipped to testify how we made it. We are better now than before the storm.
You don't see rainbows until after the rain! The beautiful presence of a rainbow signifies that the storm has passed. The temporary struggle we faced is over. It is a symbol of peace and victory. The rainbow represents God's mercy.
I heard a song on that spoke about how much God loves us. The
lyrics said something like " Your love never fails, never runs out,
never gives up on me" I am so humbled by those words. Knowing that all I
do to disappoint or fail God, he never stops loving me. I am so grateful for His love, His grace, His mercy.
I want to display the love of God to those around me. I want to show grace and mercy even in hard times. I want to be be slow to anger and quick to listen and love. I want to forgive.
I am committed to staying positive in the storms. Trials will
come, that is inevitable, but knowing and trusting that I will come out victorious is what
will keeps me while in the midst of the storm.
Do not be afraid or discouraged, for the Lord will personally go ahead of you. He will be with you; He will neither fail you or abandon you. - Deuteronomy 31:8 NLT
