"Rejoice, rejoice. I have much to teach you. Think not that I withhold My Presence when I do not reveal more of My Truth to you. You are passing through a storm. Enough that I am with you to say 'Peace be Still', to quiet both winds and waves. It was on the quiet mountain slopes that I taught My disciples the Truths of My Kingdom, not during the storm. So with you, the time of the mountain slope will come, and you will rest with Me and learn." (God Calling)
I love this reading from the book "God Calling". It reminds me that in my times of peace, after the storm, that God will reveal His Truth to me. I surely need that reminder because during the storm I am often asking God, "why me?", or "why now?", even though I do know that I am given His Truths after the storm has passed. Almost inevitably, He teaches me something new after I have given my trouble to him.
Today I am grateful that God gives me His Truths of His Kingdom after the storm when I can be still to listen and learn during the peace that only He gives me!
