Life’s Passing Storms - Dr. Charles Stanley

“In this world you will have trouble” (John 16:33 NIV).
Of all the promises Jesus made during His time on earth, that’s one we all wish weren’t true. But, as most of us know from personal experience, it is.
In this message, Dr. Stanley echoes the disturbing reality of those words but reminds us that the verse doesn’t end there: “But take heart! I have overcome the world.” Yes, storms-be they of our own disobedient making or an attack of the enemy’s-are inevitable. But through them all, God is conforming us to His image, demonstrating His power, and drawing us closer with His love.

[@abrab5342]

No one is perfect. But we need to recognize our weaknesses, and try to avoid them at ALL cost. For example, if we have an alcohol problem, having alcohol at your home will heightened the temptation to take a drink. The point is we must try to avoid the things that cause the temptation, rather that to put ourselves in the position to be tempted, then try to fight it

[@NickOtis0707]

Amen same here I been suffering with late-stage chronic lyme disease for almost seven years now. Even though I am still suffering today now I can say from time to time when I can remind myself to give thanks to the Lord for my suffering. Because without my suffering I probably wouldn't have relationship with the Lord. Could there been a different way that the Lord could have changed me and save me I don't know but we know that his ways are perfect and he knows what's best for us. I suffer with a lot of few issues with Lyme disease and what this disease did to my body especially my gut health because our gut health influence our mood energy and much more. I suffer with depression and anxiety and I pray to the Lord all the time to take it away and even though I still have it I wonder if my faith is not strong enough but I remember the Lord says to have faith as a mustard seed. I get aches and pains in my knees my neck my shoulders my lower back. I deal with fatigue issues and also a low CBC blood count. My first blood doctor that I saw she had to do three bone marrow biopsies on me finding out that I have few cells in my bone marrow currently at 20% to 25% and it should be at 70% for my age. Right now I'm getting a second opinion with a blood doctor even though I did discuss everything of what I said in this message about Lyme disease she's not discounting why I'm still sick but she's not specialize in it. There are a few testimonies and videos that I read of people getting better with this disease but they had better resources and money to see a Lyme disease doctor or go to the best lawn disease clinics. Because they treat the infection but also inflammation in the person's body the restore gut health they do other natural treatments to. One thing I try to remember almost every day is I need to trust the Lord no matter what. I came across pastor Charles Stanley about 5 years ago. He is one of my favorite preachers even though he's a Baptist and I go to a Lutheran Church they believe mostly in the same biblical faith in the Lord's word...✍️✝️🕊️❤️

Such the great message. There are storms that come in our lifes but God calms all of our storms. A loss of a family member is one of such storms - this brings us closer to God as we know that God knows everything. If God calls us home. He calls us home. I still miss my mum who passed away from cancer last year , but I thank God that she was able to turn to God for forgiveness and rededicate her life to Christ. There was no cure and God called her home. I thank God that she passed away recieving the Lord Jesus as her Saviour. God calms every storm and knows what is best for us. Forgiveness, repentence and a pure heart is the cornerstone of our faith. Thank you Dr Stanley for such a great message.
