"How long do your storms last?"


I was in our yard recently working on something—cutting grass or roses or spreading mulch—something like that when all of a sudden the wind started gusting. Then the gusts grew more severe. I looked up in the sky and noticed that it was black with clouds. A storm was blowing up and quickly.

So I got my tools together and went inside just as huge drops of rain fell. It was one of those heavy downpours that the gutters can’t contain. "Well, there goes my afternoon," I thought.

But in less than an hour, the sun was shining again and the storm was gone. I went back out in the yard and started again.

You know, some times in life when stormy problems come over us in a hurry, we think, "Well there goes my day (or week or month or life)." But if you’ll think back, most of those problems are like my thunderstorm experience—they blow over pretty quickly and then you’re back on track.

So hang in there during the storm and just listen to life today for what God has to say.
