Suddenly, the air was peppered with bees. I’ve never seen so many bees all at once. Within fifteen minutes they were gone. I guess they were just passing through.
That reminds me of the storms of life. Suddenly the storm hits. It seemingly comes from nowhere and wham! Unexpected job loss, cancer, repair bill, and on and on goes the list of storms. Some swiftly come upon us and quickly disappear – just like the bees. Others stick around for a lengthy period of time.
Whatever storm you are facing – God holds your peace. He is the calm in the eye of the storm. He is greater than any storm. He is your Protector. Trust Him. Lean on Him. Look to Him. You will either look at Him or the storm. He offers peace, life, and protection.
The storm hurls fear and death as it tries to ravish your faith.
The storm – like the bees – will pass. God is still on the throne. Fix your eyes upon Him and He will do exceedingly above and beyond what you can imagine.
