Sweetness of the Storm
I always thank my God for you because of the grace He has given you in Christ Jesus. For in Him you have been enriched in every way. 1 Corinthians 1:4-5 God may not give us an easy journey to the Promised Land, but He will give us a safe one. —Bonar Storms have been known to uncover treasures hidden in the sandy beaches. And storms of the soul have driven some to discover the rich treasures of the love of God in Christ.
Is it Raining, Little Flower? Is it raining, little flower? Be glad of rain; Too much sun would wither thee; ’Twill shine again. The clouds are very black, ’tis true; But just behind them shines the blue. Art thou weary, tender heart? Be glad of pain: In sorrow sweetest virtues grow, As flowers in rain. God watches, and thou wilt have sun, When clouds their perfect work have done.
—Lucy Larcom
