through the thunder and through the rain...

random fact: i never bring an umbrella to work, even though i know it will rains. Why? Because God is good to me, it always stop raining when I get off work. It may rain all day but when I get off work, it stops. Like yesterday, the weather was completely fine when I got off work. It was only after I was safely on the bus it started to pour.

i watched this video the other day at church while waiting for a meeting to start..didn't really think about it more deeply until yesterday when i was in the midst of a thunderstorm...

just about rain and thunderstorms in general...generally ppl dont like them...but i totally dont mind them at all...i actually do find it relaxing sometimes walking in the rain..sure u get wet..but ur grass gets greener...flowers bloom afterwards...car gets nice and clean...com'n how bad can storms be ? but i wonder if i have the same type of outlook in life ..when things don't go my way...when the "storms" coming rolling in and the world is all dark all around...can i really find myself standing there and thinking things will turn out just fine..but in reality...we are so worried about the moment at hand, on the problems that have been placed in our hands...and just dont want to do with it...and we start to question and wonder why did it happen in the first place...in reality..protray pretty nicely in the video..is that God has never left our side during these storms..He is with us each step of the way, sheltering us from the worst of it and we only have to deal with what He thinks we can handle...

we are but mere specks of dust in the hands of God yet continually and consistently He has cared for us, poured blessing on us and shown His loved for us..and din the midst of the storms in our lives..He draws us closer to Him even more...because we are in His embrace..telling us that things will be alright and that we will make it home

at the end of the day the storms will pass..and what's left are the clear blue sky..beautiful green fields..and a walk closer to God

"For I am the LORD, your God, who takes hold of your right hand and says to you, Do not fear; I will help you." ~ Isaiah 41:13
