Storms Of Life

There are times in our lives when everything seems to crumble around us. We think; if only I had seen the signs, I would have known there was a storm on the horizon. I may not have been able to stop the rain; but I could have at least bought an umbrella.
Things aren't always easy. Yes, storms come our way. But they never last. I have learned not to curse the rain, but instead to dance in it. Like flowers, grass, trees; we need the rain to make us stronger. When we fall down, we have a choice. We can focus on the fall or, we can focus on getting back up. In a storm, we can focus on the rain(the problem we're facing) or we can look up and start searching for the rainbow(God's sign of His mercy and love for us and His promises to us). One thing is for sure: while God may not have brought the storm, He will definitely use it to help us grow.
