Luckily, even the worst storms eventually pass. You just have to be strong and try to get through them. In the same way, when you weather the storm in your life, you do your best to get through a difficult situation. You might get very stressed because you have a lot of work to do for school or your job. You have to stay focused and do your best to get through it or weather the storm.
For instance, the game tug a war, while pulling with all your might, you feel a throbbing pain in your arms, knees started to buckle, and feet began to slide. you hold out for as long as you could, but after a hard-fought struggle you were overpowered by the other guy and yielded to their strength. You had to give up and surrender the tug-of-war.
God Is Pulling for You, Not Against You
There is no tug-of-war with God. He is on the same side of the rope as we are! “If God is for us, who is against us? He who did not spare his own son, but delivered him over for us all, how will he not also with him freely give us all things?” (Romans 8:31-32).
When our storm is forcing us to struggle and strain, we are tempted to hold on to what we are familiar with even when it creates misery or exhausts us. Faith is required to open your fist and let God take your expectations. But once he is included, literally anything can happen!
When we release our rope to God, he picks it up on our behalf. Our burdens are his and our cares are in his hands. He reveals what we need to know and guides us in the direction we need to go. start moving your feet towards Jesus. He is on the same side of your rope...and on the other side of the storm.
