Navigating the Storms of LifeSample

I hope you don’t believe that hard times aren’t supposed to come to God’s people when we are doing what He wants us to do. If someone told you that, I would like to correct the misinformation. Storms come, period. God uses life’s setbacks and challenges to perfect and mature us, so you can be sure He doesn’t waste His storms or send them randomly. But the storms will come. The only question is when, what their intensity will be, and what our reaction will be.

Of course, not every trial we face comes in the middle of doing right. Remember Jonah. God often sends a storm to track us down and turn us around. You may ask, “How will I know the difference?”

Trust me, God often shows us the reasons behind pain. And He is with us in every storm.

What might God be trying to teach you through the storms in your life?

We hope this plan encouraged you. For more about the Tony Evans ministry, click here.
