Devotional
Storms in life are inevitable. They might come as financial difficulties, health challenges, or relationship struggles. While our natural reaction might be to resent these difficult seasons, what if we viewed them differently? What if, instead of seeing storms as obstacles, we saw them as opportunities to experience God’s presence in a deeper way? In life’s calmest moments, we might take God’s presence for granted, but in the storm, we often see His power and faithfulness most clearly. Today, rather than asking God to remove your storm, ask Him to reveal Himself to you within it.
Bible Verse
Then they took Jonah and threw him overboard, and the raging sea grew calm. – Jonah 1:15
Reflection Question
What storm in your life right now could be an opportunity to see God more clearly?
Quote
“Don’t resent the storms. Look for God in the storms. You will see him more clearly when the wind is blowing and the waves are dashing and you feel like you’re going under.”
Prayer
God, help me to see You in the midst of my storms. Transform my perspective so that I can recognize Your presence even in difficult times. Thank You for never leaving me alone in the midst of life’s challenges. Amen.
