A common phrase that, like so many others of its kind, loses it value and relevance because it is so irresponsibly tossed around and often misunderstood.
You know what a storm is and you have been in many natural storms, especially if you live anywhere in the USA. You know the rain, wind, hail, lightning, thunder, and snow are all elements of what you have experienced. The kind of storms I am talking about are similar except that they can't be avoided with an umbrella or finding your way under some kind of shelter. These kinds have to be endured until they pass over.
Through these storms...........you are going to get wet.
Through these storms...........your vision may be impaired.
Through these storms...........you may need more time to get to your destination safely than what you planned.
Through these storms...........the "clothes" you enjoy wearing may get damaged and you'll need new ones.
Through these storms..........you may become better evaluators of true value when you find it. What was lost might not be as valuable as you originally thought.
Through these storms...........the foundation of every relationship you're in will be revealed.
Through these storms...........it will be really difficult to see the Sun (Son) and blue skies.
Through these storms...........you will discover greater opportunities for "alone" time.
Through these storms...........you may lose your balance and fall down but you can't stay there.
Through these storms...........the temptation to make a permanent decision based on a temporary situation is greater.
Through these storms...........you will hear many voices but you're not insane, just at a critical life-stage.
Through these storms...........the sounds of the storm might be louder than the storm's actual impact.
Through these storms...........you will find out just how strong you are and still you won't be able to take full credit. All the glory belongs to God.
