Misery and Miracles

Misery and Miracles There are times in our journey where we say, “I Trust You Lord,” We say, “I Trust You Lord,” and when we step out on faith, a Monsoon of misery discovers us, And as we are drowning beneath the sheer confusion of the storm, Jesus says to us, “Why did you doubt?” And we answer, “You know why I doubted, there is a freaking monsoon of unbelievable crap that I never could have imagined surrounding me!” And he says, “Yes, there is. But have you considered? If I would allow this misery to surround you and suffocate you in this moment, Imagine what unbelievable joy and blessings and happiness I have for you on the other side of it? So I asked you why did you doubt, because you began to focus on the misery more than the miracles which will surely follow it.” And then we say, “Yes Lord, I see. Now please give me the faith to walk with you toward the other side.”
