Hard Times

I have met many people who are going through something hard right now, or have recently gone through something. I think it is pretty safe to say that on any given day we all know someone, if not ourselves, who are going through something. Romans 12:12 says "Be joyful in hope, patient in affliction, faithful in prayer." 
God knew this world would throw difficult things at us, but thankfully He gives us instructions all throughout His word on how to handle life when it gets difficult. Romans 12 is full of great Godly advice to help you find joy in the midst of the storm. And ironically most of it goes against what the world world would say to do. Like, "bless those who persecute you".
For anyone going through a storm, take it to God in prayer and ask Him to shed His supernatural wisdom, joy and peace on you while you walk through it. He may not "rescue" you from the storm because of what He wants to teach you in the storm, but He will walk with you in it and that makes ALL the difference.
