Walking with God Through the Storm

We all face 'storms', they are inevitable to life. What matters is how we prepare ourselves beforehand in order to live through them and emerge stronger in God on the other side.
These 'storms' and challenges offer us real opportunities to shine the Light of Life we carry in our hearts but it will not shine if our foundation is unstable and we do not know the nature, promises, character and faithfulness of our covenant-keeping God. These things are the true hope of the gospel the people around us need too.
Some years ago I found a photograph of a lighthouse standing strong in the midst of an angry swirling sea. The waves were so high they reached half-way up the side of the building. When I looked more closely I could see the lighthouse keeper stood in the doorway with his arms folded and every appearance of calm and peace. This image really spoke to me and since then I have been taken on a journey with God which I now share with you in Through The Storm.
