Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. During these times when hope is tested we have a rock unto which we can run and be safe. C.H. Spurgeon says, "Happy storm that wrecks a man on the rock Christ Jesus." In other words if the strom drives us to Jesus and we find peace and faith there we are the better even for the loses (physical) we may have incurred.
I don't necessarily enjoy or like difficult times however we have a savior to whom we can run for help and we will be helped. When we walk away from that time we are more aware of the divine presence of God and have a greater peace than before. In so doing we are made richer and wiser due to our forced encounter with our God. Spurgeon also said, "happy trouble that drives thee to thy Father."
Yes. Look to God our father in trouble and don't slack when things get better. Find a true experience in God that will bring balance to your life for every situation both good and bad.
Look to Him and He will save you.
