And it often is not until things are out of our control that we understand we were never meant to run our lives. We were created by Jesus, for Jesus. He died to bring us back to Him, and maybe He is right now using your storm to blow you right into His loving arms. http://hutchcraft.com/blogs/ron-hutchcrafts-blogs/what-the-storm-left-behind?utm_source=Ron+Hutchcraft+Ministries%2C+Inc.&utm_campaign=8735845fab-AWWY+6737&utm_medium=email 2012-11-06T09:14:34-05:00 It is in those powerless moments that we realize, "I'm not enough. I can't do this." And we reach for the nail-pierced hand of the Man who took all the storm of the judgment for my sin - so I could go to His heaven. Jesus is the One who can finally calm the lifelong storm in a restless soul. With His stormproof peace. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-hard-times/surprises-in-the-storm-6464 2011-10-20T11:17:21-05:00 it may feel like you're either going nowhere right now or you're on the verge of disaster; maybe on the verge of being blown on the rocks. But remember, the surprise in the storm is this: that God uses these out-of-control times. He uses them to blow His children right where they were supposed to go all along. I know it feels like your life is out of control, but you know what? You're really right on course. http://hutchcraft.com/a-life-that-matters/radio-program/the-truth-about-the-weather-channel-8223 2009-09-11T10:05:10-05:00 You know, it didn’t really matter what any of us had planned for that week. God changed all our plans. http://hutchcraft.com/a-word-with-you/your-personal-power/the-weather-channels-executive-producer-5812 2009-09-10T12:04:42-05:00 So when we're watching the weather on TV, we're watching the hand of God. He's making weather that will accomplish His purposes, to change plans, to direct our lives, to get people's attention, to chastise where necessary, sometimes to call people home, to protect us from making mistakes. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Personal-Power/Storming-Home-5664 2008-10-09T15:41:39-05:00 Your situation is out-of-control, but it is in God's control. In fact, God uses these stormy times in powerful ways to show you how much you need Him, how much you can rely on Him, to draw you closer to anchor people in your life, to help you see sin that you would otherwise would never face, to make changes you'd otherwise never consider. And then He brings you safely to your destination. http://hutchcraft.com/A-Word-With-You/Your-Personal-Power/The-Weather-Channel-s-Executive-Producer-3977 2008-07-28T15:16:16-05:00 Recently, I read these awe-inspiring verses from Job 37, beginning with verse 5. They reveal the ways that we can see and celebrate the power and the majesty of our God by just looking at the weather - and they're our word for today from the Word of God.
