I don’t think God wastes any of His lessons to us. Storms in our lives don’t necessarily come from God since we live in a broken world, but as He helps us through them, we learn more and more about Him. He strengthens our faith and shows us His faithfulness, mercy, grace and unconditional, endless love. He never leaves us to face it alone. He promised that He would never leave us nor forsake us. If He is quiet that doesn’t mean He isn’t present.
The Lord is with you and with me. Do you acknowledge His presence each day? Or, are you ignoring Him until you need His help? Maybe if we listened more and fellowshipped with Him every day, sometimes He might be trying to warn us about a storm so we could avoid it. I know He’s warned me a time or two and I didn’t pay attention. I thank Him so much for His mercy and grace! He has taught me so much and given me wisdom to share to help others who are dealing with similar storms. The Lord is pretty awesome in how He orchestrates encounters!
