Do we allow the trials of life to eclipse the face of God? We all do at times.
The Lord wants us to come to the place that even when we can’t understand, we merely trust Him.
No matter how hard the winds blow, God is Ruler of the winds.
No matter how rough the sea becomes, He is still the Master of the sea.
When God doesn’t answer you, keep on praying. Keep on believing.
Whatever the outcome, victory is coming. Keep the faith.
1 Corinthians 15:57 But thanks be to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

“I heard an old, old story. — How a Savior came from glory, — How He gave His life on Calvary. — To save a wretch like me. —
I heard about His groaning. —. Of His precious blood's atoning; —. Then I repented of my sins. — And won the victory.
Chorus
“O victory in Jesus, — My Savior, forever. — He sought me and bought me. — With His redeeming blood. —. He loved me ere I knew Him. — And all my love is due Him. — He plunged me to victory. — Beneath the cleansing flood
“I heard about His healing. — Of His cleansing pow'r revealing. — How He made the lame to walk again. — And caused the blind to see. — And then I cried, "Dear Jesus, — Come and heal my broken spirit,". — And somehow Jesus came and brought. — To me the victory.
“I heard about a mansion. — He has built for me in glory. —. And I heard about the streets of gold. — Beyond the crystal sea; — About the angels singing. — And the old redemption story; — And some sweet day I'll sing up there. — The song of victory.”
