“So often in life we think that because we have done things in a certain way, certain results should follow. But life is like the ocean. Sometimes we get caught in squalls and storms and things don’t go the way we think they should, even when we think we have done right. But God can find us in the eye of a storm and give us courage to swim in rough water.” ― John H. Groberg

“We learn lessons from storms that we cannot learn from calm seas.”
― John H. Groberg, The Other Side of Heaven  

There is safety for us only on the Lord’s side of the line.

“There is a line of demarcation, well-defined, between the Lord’s territory and the devil’s. If you will stay on the Lord’s side of the line you will be under his influence and will have no desire to do wrong; but if you cross to the devil’s side of the line by even one inch, you are in the tempter’s power, and if he is successful, you will not be able to think or even reason properly, because you will have lost the spirit of the Lord.” (Sharing the Gospel with Others, 1948, 42–43). George Albert Smith
