Day 193 – Never fear the storm.
Today’s Reading: Isaiah 9 – 12
Isaiah 10:24 “Therefore this is what the Lord, the Lord Almighty, says: “My people who live in Zion, do not be afraid of the Assyrians, who beat you with a rod and lift up a club against you, as Egypt did.”
Being a Florida girl, Ive watched the storm clouds roll in every Summer afternoon all my life. At first, I was afraid of them, their darkness and fury instilling fear in my heart. But after years and many countless storms, they’ve now become a comforting part of nature.
With every storm, no matter how fierce, it still brings the rain. And rain is God’s way of watering the earth, bringing new growth and Hope. This applies to the storms of life as well.
It’s as though we can see them coming and we try to get fully prepared, but theirs a power outage and we can only see by the flashes of light from God’s Word.
God will provide the foundation, restoration, and justice once the storm passes.
Isaiah 12:2 “Surely God is my salvation; I will trust and not be afraid. The Lord, the Lord himself, is my strength and my defense; he has become my salvation.”
We have no reason to fear the storm because He rides in with the storm and revives the land until it’s thriving again. Are you in the middle of a storm right now or do you see one rolling in? Be prepared, but also be filled with peace. The storms arent here to harm you, instead, in the end, it will grow you to greater lengths and strength.
