2 Corinthians 4: 17-18 “For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; While we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen: for the things which are seen are temporal; but the things which are not seen are eternal.”
During the midst of a storm, we tend to forget that it is temporary. That is why I wrote the blo
g temporal today. Everything that we see here is shifting sand, nothing that is not eternal will last. A mans life is but a vapor here today and gone tomorrow. So when we find ourselves in despair at the latest storm we have to look up and put our trust in Jesus who holds us in the hollow of HIS hand.
Encourage ourselves that this is temporary and it will not last.
THIS TOO SHALL PASS 
So, you’ve fallen behind—
Oh, no, not again.
And you can see that you are
Hard-pressed against a wind
That hits just like a hammer
On a nail that’s bent—
Oh no, not again.
Oh no, not again.
Oh, I know these days are hard
And I know it’s hard to last
But, believe you me,
Just sturdy up your heart
And this too shall pass.
If there are wars being waged
But they’re not your voice
And if good love has gone away
But it wasn’t by choice—
If it’s out of your hands
But you just can’t let go
And if there’s a whole lot on your mind
But a whole lotta no one to show…
Oh, I know these days are hard
And I know it’s hard to last
But, believe you me,
Just sturdy up your heart
And this too shall pass.
So, you’ve fallen behind—
Oh, no, not again.
And you can see that you are
Hard-pressed against a wind
That hits just like a hammer
On a nail already bent—
Oh no, not again.
Oh no, not again.
Oh, I know these days are hard
And I know it’s hard to last
But, believe you me,
Just sturdy up your heart
And this too shall pass.
ALONE IN THE STORM?
