Are you going through a stormy patch in life? If so, I pray you put yourself into the loving arms of Jesus Christ, whether you believe in Him or not. Find your resting place in Him, and remain there until these storms blow over!      Now is not the time to assess the damages! Don't try to run out and fix anything! Just hunker down, hold your ground, and pray, pray, pray! When these storms finally pass you by, which they eventually will, then you may choose to venture outside and assess the damages, or calculate how to restore what was wind-driven from your life.      I know from personal experience that bad things happen. The stormy seasons in my life go something like this; Bad, bad, awful, bad, good, bad, really bad, bad, terrible, bad.      But strangely enough, once I eventually come out on the other side of the storm system, I'm usually better, stronger, and much more empathetic towards others who've endured the same storms as I have.     It is strange to me how 'GOOD' can come from 'BAD' things that happen to us in this life; but I have witnessed this truth firsthand.     My encouragement to you is to put your faith fully in Jesus Christ, add a bunch of patience, and an allow everything some time, and soon enough your tests will become testimonies!
