This Too Shall Passनमूना

I'm with you

Like many of you, I’ve been through some serious storms in my life – big ones, ones I never thought I’d have to face. It was in the midst of one of these seasons in my life, utterly overwhelmed and helpless that I first heard the song Praise You In This Storm by Casting Crowns. I was sitting alone in my car, parked in an actual storm, begging for some respite from the situation I’d found myself in.

Well, as the thunder rolls

I barely hear Your whisper through the rain

‘I’m with you’

‘I’m with you’ over and over again the words echoed in my heart as though God was right there whispering them to me. Those words gave me the strength to lift my head, literally and figuratively, and that glimmer of hope and light in the darkest of moments was enough for me to hold onto in the following months and years it took for God to lift me out of the situation I found myself in. I cannot pretend everything changed in that moment – it didn’t. But in that moment, I knew deep down that it would. I couldn’t tell you when or how, and there were many times I doubted it along the way, but I just knew.

So, if you’re going through a storm right now, remember this: God is with you. He’s right there beside you, whispering words of comfort and strength, even when it feels like you’re all alone. Hold onto that hope, because it will see you through.
