Love, Laughter and Friends are Always Welcome

Some people come into our lives and quickly go ... some people stay a while and leave footprints on our hearts ... and we are never the same.

Wait out the Storms

Last night we had at over 6 inches of fluffy snow fall softly down. This afternoon the wind started to blow and that fluffy white snow began to blow too.  When you looked out the window you couldn't see anything but white. For a few hours that wind blew with all it's might.  Then the wind suddenly stopped.  It reminded me that sometimes as we go through this life storms start to blow and for a little while we might get discouraged. We can't see where to go or we don't know what to do.  If we can just hold on for a little while the winds will stop and the way will be visible again.  
In Proverbs 3:5-6 it says, "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.  In all ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths."  That is what faith is all about.  Trust in the Lord and just hold on. He will lead you through any storms or trials that may come to you in this life.
