Behind the Storm
<<First Name>>, as we get this newsletter ready to go, the weather is threatening. Forecasters are saying there’s the possibility of storms on the way. It’s the season for storms. One thing we can be sure of in springtime Mississippi is the coming of storms. But they always end. Sooner or later, behind the storm, the sun pops back out.
Sounds like life, doesn’t it? One thing we can be sure of in this life is storms are coming. They sneak up on us and overwhelm us. We may feel like we just might not make it through this one. But, even in the midst of your storm, you can always count on this. The Son is behind your storm, ready to fill your life with Himself. This storm will pass, and Jesus, the One who brings you through it, will shine His warmth into your life.
