I read this story today about some people who went into a concentration camp after the war was over and they walked into a cell they know nothing about who stayed in this cell other than this quote he wrote on his cell wall. The quote read, “I believe in the Sun even when it’s not shining, I believe in love even when I don’t feel it, and I believe in God even when he is silent.”
This man didn’t let the hard times crush him and he didn’t let his dark walls of his cell swallow him up, but he turned around and wrote on those dark walls who our GOD IS and what He ALWAYS will be. He knew that behind those dark clouds there was a sun shining, and He KNEW that he was loved even if he didn’t feel it. This story challenged me and made me realize how weak my faith is and how I need to try harder to grow closer to God. The last thing I want to do is write something like that on my wall when I go through a hard time and this man went through a much harder time and he DID write that on his wall.
I want to become more like this man. When I go through hard times and I feel that God is silent. I want to be able to turn around and let Satan know just how GREAT my God IS and that He will never leave me. “Don’t tell God how big you storm is. Tell your storm just how big your GOD IS.”
