How is the best way to respond to the storms of life when they come my way? And how can my response be pleasing to God?
When most of us experience painful circumstances our response is, "How can I get this out of my life?" And, if you have something in your life that's causing you pain and suffering and you can get rid of it, then you should.
But we're talking about things that we have no control over.
I think the problem comes when we are only interested in how this is going to turn out. God is more concerned with how you and I are going to turn out.
Jesus spoke these truths to the crowds in Matthew 7:24-27,
“Therefore, everyone who hears these words of Mine, and acts on them, will be like a wise man who built his house on the rock. And the rain fell and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock. And everyone who hears these words of Mine, and does not act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. And the rain fell and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell—and its collapse was great.” >>Watch on YouTube
