An airline pilot made the most astounding statement .. and it has never left me.
We were in the midst of a terrible storm .. clouds so dark .. up/down drafts .. it was very frightening.
I was calm and just prayed .. I was convinced God did not supply me with airline tickets just to have the plane crash.
As we were landing in Oklahoma City (and were finally out of the storm) the pilot made this dramatic statement - “My apologizes for the rough flight, he said, this storm came up out of nowhere. We didn’t even see it coming.”
If we always keep in mind; “... the devil comes to steal, kill and destroy, but I have come that you might have life and that abundantly.”
Sometimes the storms of life are not on our timetable .. they just seem to come out of nowhere .. but the true test is how we handle the storm.

Well said!
Reminds me of a great one, my favorite, that I read here on Freep...
Don’t tell God how big your storm is,
Tell the storm how big your God is.
