#LMMLinkup: We Have A Source Of Hope in the Storm

September 18, 2017 By Mary Hill 10 Comments

 

Welcome back to the #LMMLinkup for the week of September 18.

Storms may rage in your life, but you have a source of hope. Our Lord can calm any storm.

How did you fair during the recent storms in the United States?

I can’t wait to read your posts this week. I hope you will check out my Five Minute Friday post for more inspiration and hope. It is entitled, “Offering Support and Love After The Storm.”

Last Week’s Top Clicked Post!

 Harvey & Irma: Where Was God? - Two weeks ago all eyes were riveted on the Texas coast and Hurricane Harvey. We watched as days of wind and rain pummeled the Gulf Coast, moving along Texas, camping out in Houston, and continuing into Louisiana. Now, while Texas and Louisiana begin to clean up and figure out how to rebuild, Hurricane Irma is bearing down on Florida. She has already caused death and destruction in the Caribbean. And while we hovered between two catastrophic storms, there was an earthquake in Mexico that has left dozens dead. The question many ask is, "Where was God?"
By Donna Reidland at Soul Survival

This post really hit home with me. Donna always writes such timely posts and this one will bless you as she features some wonderful resources to help us through trials and tribulations.

As I read her post, I remembered this wonderful song about God being with us in spite of the storm.  It is called “The Anchor Holds.” I experienced that anchor firsthand this week. God really held my community during a terrible storm.

My Favorite Post of the Week

God is Greater than the Storm

 

God is Greater than the Storm

by Dr Michelle

My week focus centered on storms as I went through a hurricane and personal trials. Dr. Michelle’s post is a great reminder of God’s faithfulness. She also shared some wonderful scriptures and insights. I highly recommend her post this week.

Linkup Rules:

  1. Include a link back or the blog hop button linked to this hop on your posts.
  2. Link up the urls to your posts not to your blog.
  3. Please remember this is a family-friendly linkup. Although we believe in the right for adults to read whatever they want to read, we prefer to read wholesome posts that feature literature that edify and uplift families. We reserve the right to delete any posts that are not family friendly. We love all kinds of literature and genres including family-friendly inspirational romances, fantasy, or science fiction. We do not welcome any posts that feature excessive violence, sexual content, or any cursing. This rule also applies to book review posts that feature books that are not family-friendly. These posts will be deleted without notice to the blogger or explanation. While we believe in the right for all adults to read whatever they want, we feel our linkup is for family-friendly posts only. Thank you for understanding.
  4. We also want to be loving community by supporting one another. Please make a point to do this this week! Visit the two posts before yours and at least one other blogger’s post of your choice! I want to see lots of clicks on everyone’s posts. Remember it is also nice to follow them on their social media platforms like Twitter and Facebook.
  5. Follow your hosts and co-hosts on their social media.
  6. Tweet about the link up too.

    So many storms in life come and at the time it is hard to see past all the bad. But I know the storms in my life helped me grow.
    Praying for all those who were affected by the recent storms. That there is good hidden among the bad.

    Our nation sure is having some storms, some physical others spiritual.
    I believe our times are as in the days of Noah. Our King is getting ready.

    As for us, our electricity flickered on and off, lots of debris in the yard, high winds…
    But, we are ok. Thanks for asking.

    I had one of THOSE kind of days this past week and chose Joy :0) Choosing joy isn’t always easy, but it is better in the long run!

    Mary, thanks so much to all who read my post last week. I pray that those who were affected by all the devastation in Florida will find the hope they need in my post, Michelle’s or others. I pray they will come to know God better and trust Him more. Thank you for hosting each week.

    The words “my hope is in you” sound like a strong battle cry coming on the tail end of a big storm. How wonderful that no catastrophe is too catastrophic for God to work through.
