God Shows Mom A Miracle After Complaining About Cold
Motivational speaker Clayton Jennings shares a valuable lesson about the grace of God and how there is a purpose to every season of our lives.
Just listen as he shares a story where a mom complained about where she and her family lived. They lived on a lake in Michigan with their little three-year-old boy and when winter came, the wife expressed how much she hated the cold. She was so miserable but her husband told her that he believed that God had them there for a reason. And that's exactly what happened one night when she was cooking dinner with her son in the kitchen. At first, her son was running and playing near her but when she turned she noticed that he was not in the kitchen with her anymore. She thought he was playing a game of hide-and-seek, so she went to go look for him around the house. But then she looked out the back window and saw that the little boy somehow got outside! She was so frightened because he was standing right in the middle of the lake and she knew he could not swim at all. But because of the condition of the weather, the lake was frozen solid. When the two of them got back inside, she cried to God and thanked Him for the weather that she had been complaining about this whole time. If it had not been so cold, the outcome would have been very different.
This is such an important reminder for us that God assigns a purpose to every season of our lives. So instead of complaining when something does not appear to go the way you imagined, start thanking God for where He has you.

A Prayer of Comfort for Families Missing Their Fallen Military Heroes - Your Daily Prayer - May 27
Because the general public views them as fallen heroes deserving of patriotic honor, many may mistakenly think that this somehow helps to soften the blow of the loss to their family members. But for many families, it can be extremely difficult to accept and process, especially because their passing is without warning, unexpected, and with no opportunity to say goodbye.
