Here are 5 facts about storms of life that we need to remember:

1. Storms are INEVITABLE (John 16:33).

2. Storms are UNPREDICTABLE. You don’t know what tomorrow will bring. (James 4:14).

3. Storms are IMPARTIAL. It rains on the unjust and not just the "just"! (Matthew 5:45).

4. Storms are TEMPORARY. Peter refers to a "season of suffering" (I Peter 1:6).  I Corinthians 10:13 reminds us that God knows how much we can handle.

5. Storms are for BUILDING FAITH. James 1 tells us to "count it all joy” when storms come.
