The Presence of God in The Deep, Frightening Waters of Life

"To live with the Lord when things are light makes real the potential of realizing His presence when things are dark and when finding Him is not easy. The more we value our daily walk with Him when all is going well, the greater the potential of experiencing His fullness when moments of crises come. From the well of rich, historical experiences we are able to draw forth the lessons to be learned from those traumatic times. How wonderful to walk through the deep the frightening waters of life and emerge on the other side with a new understanding of the reality of the presence of God!"
