Sometimes the storm knocks you down. Sometimes the fight seems too hard.
But, when the storm rages, work with the gusts, don't quit! Even in the storm, there is beauty. Are you willing to see it? It might require a change in perspective. Instead of letting the storm knock you down, use it to gain strength. Endurance.
The wind might beat at your back, and the rain might pelt your face. Use the wind to soar, and the rain to cleanse.
Grow, prepare and be ready. So that when the sun breaks through the clouds and the rainbow spreads across the sky, you will be ready to fully embrace the glorious moment of long awaited victory.
The best rainbows come after the worst storms. It's coming. Can you feel it? Look UP!
The truth is, when you forget (or refuse) to look up..you miss out on seeing The Helping Hand stretched out for you.
So, once again you gave me just what I needed this evening! You lift me up and make me LOOK up! I love you very much.
ReplyDeleteI was giving myself a pep talk. I'm glad it helped you, too. :) I do that a lot here. haha It's been a week! And we're only really just starting it out! Your vacation is coming soon. Think on that :) Loves!! Was nice to see you yesterday. Felt like you came and went so fast. Chris and Amber said, "No, she was here till 9." But I felt like it had just been a minute. Where did the time go? I'm afraid I wasn't very good company. But, I love you. And that doesn't change no matter what. ((hugs))
ReplyDeleteYou were fine... although I could tell you were just about 'peopled out'! I thought the time flew, too and wished I could have stayed longer, but 6:15 came very very early this morning! Have to try to come out when we don't have to get up the next morning, LOL! Loves and hugs...
ReplyDeleteI hear ya. I couldn't sleep that night. Ended up getting about 4 hours total in. Morning hurt!!
