Going through a Storm

Last night we were graced by the presence of Tropical Storm Hanna.

Honestly, it could have been much worse (especially here in Charleston).  I have been through a couple of Tropical Storms and this one really didn't do much.  Lots of rain, but for the most part I slept through the entire thing.

I did wake up this morning and discover that our tennis court was completely flooded but that it!

As I was preparing for Tropical Storm Hanna a few thoughts about storms in life came to mind and I was reminded that storms do come up.  Stuff happens and when there really is no end in sight, that is when we tend to call upon God.  This last year has been an interesting year for me personally, and spiritually.  I have had a few "storms" come up myself and I have really learned to lean on God through it all.  But more importantly I have been striving to put Jesus as the center of everything...not just the storms!  Hanna was a good reminder to keep striving for this!
