                  Beyond The Storm

My child, do not look at the darkness of the sky for if you do you will
not be able to see where to go.  I have not called you to stand frozen in
place in the midst of the storm clouds.  I call unto you, My child, to
lift your eyes to the horizon of the storm for it is there where you will
see the light of My presence beckoning you onward.

I call you to the other side of your storm to your promise land. It is a
land of My presence and peace. I do not promise you that you will have
no storms or struggles, but I have always promised "the other side," a
promised land and an overcoming victory.

I have promised I would never leave or forsake you even in the storms.
Listen and again I say listen for even in the midst of the storms you
will hear My voice beckoning you towards the path you should take. Look
and again I say look for you will see My light break forth on the horizon
in the way you should go, for I will direct and I will navigate your path
through all your times of life. Trust Me to do so!
