Praise Him in the storm!

It’s hard to find strength to praise the Lord when tragedies hit. One of my friends lost her mom this weekend and it has been so hard. We have been praying constantly and loving her so much. She is so strong! It’s hard to understand how she is so strong through all of this. She has taught me how to praise God in the midst of the biggest storms. Many times praising Him is the furthest thing from our minds when we are hurting. All we want to do is get mad at God for putting us though such a hard time. My friend has shown her strength through praising Him continuously. She thanks Him and praises His name every time she talks about her mom.

The Lord knows exactly how much heartache and pain we can endure. He will never give us more than we can handle. He walks with us ever step of everyday and will not let our feet slip. He is our rock and our salvation. He has a bigger plan than any of us can imagine for our pain and heartache. He uses situations like this for His glory and His honor.

Please be praying for my friend and her family!


"For men are not cast off by the Lord forever. Though he brings grief, he will show compassion, so great is his unfailing love! For he does not willingly bring affliction or grief to the children of men." -Lamentations 3:31-33
