The Strong's
At one time or another, as creatures of creation, we will all face a storm. The storm may be rocky, or it may be smooth. It is up to us as beings of existence to recognize when a storm is approaching. We all deal with our storms in our own personal manners of difference. The Strong's, is a story of a family who faced many storms. No matter how great, their faith remarkably carried them through each and every storm. Walking into a storm blindsided, indubitably causes destruction, pain, and even death. As with any other challenge, preparation is the key in overcoming unbearable situations. We must ask ourselves, if a mighty and great storm came into our lives today, would we be able to weather it?
