Sunrise on the Edge of a Hurricane

The sun rises on the edge of hurricane Lee. In life, the beautiful and the terrible often walk side by side. Too many Pennsylvania rivers overflowed their banks; too many people were evacuated from their homes; too many valuables were washed away. During the days of high winds and the intense flooding that followed, babies were born, a wedding took place, surgery was performed, cancer removed, and friends reunited. There were laughter and tears, joy and sorrow, celebrations and devastation.

Yet in the middle of these two extremes, the love of Jesus Christ was found by those who looked for God. He was the One who watched over and protected the children when their schools were evacuated. He was the One who could see the road when the pouring rain and the passing trucks made visibility impossible. He was the One who sent His angels to watch over people in surgery. Highest praises to the Lord God Almighty, who is with us in both the good times and the bad.

May we breakthrough the obstacles that are keeping us embracing the comfort and the love of Jesus Christ. For more encouragement and inspiration by Lynn Zuk-Lloyd, go to www.promisegarden.com
