The storm is not a stranger to the boat.They are rational.Infact ,a sailor would be very surprise to sail through the sea without a storm.Storms are challenges ,battles ,problems,troubles, difficulties,situations and circumstances that confront your life and destiny.Your Boat is that which enable you to sail your way through life.It is your vision ,your dreams ,your goals,your faith ,your hope ,and your expectation.Just as the storm confront the boat,challenges and difficulties confront your life.
Remember This:No pressure No Diamonds
The same boiling water that soften the potato ,hardens the egg!.It depends on what you are made of.Not the circumstances!Oh! Every flower must grow through dirt and Storms make trees take deeper roots!You cannot pray away every uncomfortable circumstances!You cannot fast away or rebuke every trail!God allows some battles to make you grow.
Remember Jesus christ at the Garden of Gethsemane?Despite His bloody and intense prayers,He went through His storm and conquered.We all hate STORMS but hear this:
You cannot calm a STORM! You can only calm Yourself! Why? Because no storm is forever !it was made to come and Go! It will Pass!
So ,don't wish like David said in today's "....Oh that l had wings like a dove! For then would l fly away,and be at rest....I would hasten my eascape from the windy storm and tempest."
No sir! Don't run away from the storm!FACE THE STORM! STORM YOUR STORM!
ACAN is a storm sent to Delay you ,but the bad news for achan is that No storm can sink your boat because Your storm is on an Assignment! It was sent to change you and not to sink you!
Hallelujah! Hear Haruki Murakami:"Once the storm is over ,you won't remember how you made it through! You won't be the same person who walked in.That's what STORMS are all about!So refuse to quit!Hold on ,Hold fast......
Life is about focusing and doing what is right.....stay bliss
