"For he crushes me with a tempest, and multiplies my wounds without cause" (Job 9:17).
A tempest-free navigation is only a utopia.
Trial are also part of the design.
Some of the noblest virtues - faith, courage, fineness, resourcefulness etc - emerge glittering in the ordeal of a crisis.
Man would without troubles forget God!
Tempests and storms condition our souls and mature our personality.
We can never reach ashore without struggle.
Yet, the effort of every Christian should be to lessen the severity of pain and the bitterness of tears in this world.
