Storms, Storms

Storms, Storms, that is all we have thought about the last few days. And rightly so. We all remember the Storms from the last 3 years. We are preparing our homes, in case of a tornado this time, but it could be a hurricane or ice storm that we are preparing for, the kind really doesn't matter. That is great it pays to have a plan and know what you will do and be prepared in case we get slammed again by a tornado. Please be prepared. Please take it seriously, it could save your earthly life.
Everything I wrote in the first paragraph is true. But truth can be relative to the person. There is only one true truth. Jesus died on the cross and arose from death and the grave, for my sins and for your sins. And you have to accept him into your heart as your Savior. He's patiently waiting on you, and me.
That is the truth.
So now we know to be prepared for the storms of this world. We need to start our preparation to go to Heaven. God will keep us safe in what ever storm we are living in today. He just has to say peace be still. Be still and know I'm God. Much easier said than done. I know this from personal storms. Is there a tornado in your life tossing you to and fro. Jesus can fix it where you can have the strength and faith and love to get through. He never promised we wouldn't have storms, he just promised to never leave us, never forsake us, to never stop loving us.
So as we think of the scary storms on this earth (tornadoes, hurricanes, ice, snow,) and prepare the best we can to be ready, remember you also need to be preparing your life for death.
I slept like a baby last night never heard any of the storms that came through all night long. I did know when we lost power, but not when it came back on. I guess I felt safe in the arms of Jesus, and he rocked me like a baby. Let Jesus into your heart so you will be prepared for the all kinds of lifes, storms.

Isaiah 4:6 It will be a shelter and shade from the heat of the day, and a refuge and hiding place from the storm and rain.
Job 38:1 Then the Lord spoke to Job out of the storm. He said
:2“Who is this that obscures my plans
    with words without knowledge?
3 Brace yourself like a man;
    I will question you,
    and you shall answer me.
“Have you entered the storehouses of the snow
    or seen the storehouses of the hail,
23 which I reserve for times of trouble,
    for days of war and battle?
24 What is the way to the place where the lightning is dispersed,
    or the place where the east winds are scattered over the earth?
25 Who cuts a channel for the torrents of rain,
    and a path for the thunderstorm,
26 to water a land where no one lives,
    an uninhabited desert,
27 to satisfy a desolate wasteland
    and make it sprout with grass?
28 Does the rain have a father?
    Who fathers the drops of dew?
29 From whose womb comes the ice?
    Who gives birth to the frost from the heavens
30 when the waters become hard as stone,
    when the surface of the deep is frozen?
Proverbs 10:25 When the storm has swept by, the wicked are gone, but the righteous stand firm forever.
Isaiah 32:2 Each one will be like a shelter from the wind and a refuge from the storm, like streams of water in the desert and the shadow of a great rock in a thirsty land. NIV
Psalms 107:23 Some went out on the sea in ships;
they were merchants on the mighty waters.
24 They saw the works of the Lord,
his wonderful deeds in the deep.
25 For he spoke and stirred up a tempest
that lifted high the waves.
26 They mounted up to the heavens and went down to the depths;
in their peril their courage melted away.
27 They reeled and staggered like drunkards;
they were at their wits’ end.
28 Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,
and he brought them out of their distress.
29 He stilled the storm to a whisper;
the waves of the sea[b] were hushed.
30 They were glad when it grew calm,
and he guided them to their desired haven.
31 Let them give thanks to the Lord for his unfailing love and his wonderful deeds for mankind.
Psalms 55:8
"I would hurry to my place of shelter, far from the tempest and storm." NIV — feeling blessed.
