Good morning Steemians, yesterday we talked about forgiveness, you can check HERE and
today's topic is an interesting one and I hope we all learn from it.

Storm from Oxford learners dictionary is described as a phenomenon, characterized by serious disturbance or trouble. In human day to day activities, storm is not inevitable. As a matter of fact, there are storms of financial set backs, storms of academic failure, storms of long years of work without promoting, storms of near success syndrome, storms of barrenness, storms of health challenges and many more. But the question is:

How are you managing your storm?
Do you allow your storm to sink you?
Do you feel your storm is the end of the road?

Habakkuk 3:17-18

Though the fig tree does not bud and there are no graphs on the vines, though the olive crop fails and the fields produce no food, though there are no sheep in the pen and no cattle in the stalls, yet I will rejoice in the Lord, I will be joyful in God my savior.

BEHIND EVERY STORM, IS YOUR SALUTATION STORY. The moment we begin to trust God and have absolute faith in him that the storm is just there to bring out the best in us, that is when we will be able to dance in the storm instead of worrying.

In the process of refining gold, it passes through a very hot fire, after which I comes out all shiny. Your glory is just after storm, so don't ever let the storms of life way you down or make you feel that you have reached your end.

Remember Paul and silas? They danced and sang praises in the midst of the storm and the end of story was that they were liberated. It doesn't matter what your storm maybe, it doesn't matter how terrible it may seem, all you need to do is to *DANCE AND REJOICE in the Lord, for he will see you through and crown you with his glory at the every end.
