Spring is starting to break here in the Pacific Northwest and I hope wherever you are, you’re starting to see more sun! It’s Refresh Friday, a break time from regular posting, and a time to take a breather from your week.

I cannot know why suddenly the storm
Should rage so fiercely round me in its wrath;
But this I know–God watches all my path,
And I can trust.
I may not draw aside the unseen veil
That hides the unknown future from my sight,
Nor know if for me waits the dark or light;
But I can trust.
I have no power to look across the tide,
To see while here the land beyond the river;
But this I know–I will be God’s forever;
So I can trust.
– from Streams in the Desert, L.B. Cowman

Are you in a storm today? Feeling uncertain of the next step you’ll take in some season of your life? In the darkness of a valley of sorrow? I pray for you right now that you’d trust God, no matter how weak you feel that trust is. Trust Him to walk with you, to carry you when you feel like you can’t go on, to be near you when you feel far away from everything and everyone.
Stand in the Storm
