As you depart,
remember to look toward the storms of life,
not in fear, but in knowledge.
If they have just passed,
look with eager anticipation
toward the new life God brings
in your world.
If they approach,
prepare yourself
building on the firm foundation
of Jesus Christ
your Savior and Lord.
And if the rain pours down
with no end in sight,
take comfort in the promise of a faithful God –
that those who rest on Him
remain firm.
