Storms are a part of life but they do not last forever. The world should be able to identify us as Christians by how we respond to these storms.  

• Focus our Minds: Prepare your mind for action; mentally prepare yourself by focusing on our hope through grace. Live as if Jesus was standing right beside you.
• Focus our Hearts: Hope goes from a head knowledge to a heart knowledge. We are free from the religions of this world and we must change the focus of our hearts to live accordingly.
• Focus on Love: If we have a focused mind and a focused heart than our focus will be on love. The world will know we are Christians by our love. Remember, as a believer, you are never alone.
