The Bible is full of accounts of people of faith who led anything but but flowery, pain-free lives. Our world today is full of its own challenges and troubles are to be expected. Jesus didn't promise us a life without storms if we follow Him, but that He would be our refuge when they do come. Our challenge today is to lead a thriving life and stand firm on the solid rock in the midst of the turmoil around us.
