During the Storm
The storm hit.
During Hurricane Harvey and its 40 inches of rain, friends in Houston had to build a system to channel water from their overwhelmed gutters away from their house. Family in New England had to shovel snow from their roof.
What should we do during a storm?
Remind Yourself
During a storm, remind yourself of how you prepared for the storm:
Remember
Get Centered
Pray
Repeat the steps you took to get ready. (See Before the Storm.)
Do
Do whatever the Lord is telling you: channel water away from your house; shovel snow from your roof to protect the structure; do what He leads you to do during your particular storm.
Determine
And, then, determine to:
Trust your sovereign, loving God.
Run to Him—He is your refuge.
Give thanks, for this is God’s will for you.
Be a light in your world, showing God’s truth and mercy.
Press On!
And—Press On!
