storm brewing

"For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen, since what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:17-18

There's a storm crashing outside... and inside. 

Is God really working all things to the good to those who love Him?

He says so... 

Father, help me believe. You and You alone are Truth and Goodness, Mercy and Grace, Hope and Refreshment, Restoration and Life. In all our mistakes, waywardness and independence, You still love us enough not to leave us alone. Sometimes we cause the storm, sometimes You bring it to us, and sometimes it just happens.  But whatever the case, we know when the storm clears and even during the storm, You still reign. Help us hold on to the Truth, to believe and to share Your Light.   
Today, we are lifting special prayers to You for the Townville Elementary School community for healing, strength and comfort.
And we thank You, amen. 

we are loved and chosen by God,
