See God in the middle of the storm

We all experience storms in our lives. We must not be surprised that this life is a continual struggle. Temptation, failure, difficulties, trials, and tribulations are a normal part of our earthly existence. To seek an easy and comfortable life without the challenge of difficulties is not realistic.

Many times people think that God is unfair, so they stop going to church and stop praying altogether. They seem to think that being religious is a ticket to a life free of any problems at all.

God never said that this life would be easy. However, through his cross, Jesus gives meaning to suffering and his grace gives us the power to overcome the challenges of life. He is our closest friend, our deepest Love.
