Once the rubble clears, we, like those before us, are inevitably called to build the world one more time, admitting that we need each other.

People aren't perfect, and don't be fooled into thinking that everyone who smiles at you has your best interest at heart.

They will come to destroy, tear down, disrupt, and divide things and people alike. However, there is hope that you can survive the storm. God is able to bring you through any storm, if you just call him. Once you realize this certainty, then you become better equipped to deal with future storms. The Lord is the only one that can prepare us to deal with the stresses of life. He is our helper (Hebrews 13:6). He is our father, teacher, friend, protector, provider, healer and so much more. When we walk close to Him, He will walk close to us. (Scripture, Job 23:10) "But He knows the way that I take, and when He has tested me, I will come forth as gold). He will guide us, through the storms of life. Although we may face difficult situations, if God is with us, we can make it through.
