UNTIL THE STORM IS OVER.....
Isaiah 43:2 (New Living Translation)
When you go through deep waters,
I will be with you.
When you go through rivers of difficulty,
You will not drown.
When you walk through the fire of oppression,
You will not be burned up;
The flames will not consume you.
Until the storm is over, I'll rest safely in His arms
My Refuge & my Hiding Place, my Shelter from all harm
Until the the storm is over, I'll keep my eyes fixed upon my Lord Jesus
Remembering how Peter walked upon the water, for as long as he could see Him
But as soon as He took his eyes off Him, he quickly began to drown
So until the storm is over, and the winds & waves die down
I'll remain nestled here where I can rest assured that I am safe and sound
Until the storm is over......
I know many of you are going through a storm even as you read this. You are going through so much right now, that you just can't believe it! You feel that the Lord has left your side, you feel abandoned and alone. But God wants you to know that HE has never left your side- He still sits upon the Throne! He promised in His Word that He will NEVER leave you nor forsake you! Trust Him my friends, He'll safely lead you through! Oh I know that you don't understand why you have been thrown into the fire! God wants you to know that it's not to destroy you, but to PURIFY you! He is not going to allow you to go through anything that isn't for your ultimate good. I know it doesn't FEEL good... But why do you think that everything should? Focus not on your TEMPORARY, constantly changing circumstances, but focus on your ETERNAL, never changing God. He heard your prayers & He is working now, no He has not forgot! SO UNTIL THE STORM IS OVER, you can surely know-that all you have to do is trust in Him, and He will never let you go!
