God's people must be careful not to give into negativism when difficult times come along. Negativism challenges the record of God's kindness, it is clearly displayed in His Word. There is no need to analyze the past or question the future. Storms are a time for faith thoughts. In His rest, Jesus lived in faith thoughts toward His Father.
All believers face situations, personal problems and difficulties at certain points in their lives.
They are not to analyze the storm. Rather, storms are times to think on things that are pure, lovely, kind, and virtuous. They are a time to speak faith thoughts. Let us go over unto the other side of the lake. And they launched forth.
