“When the storm has swept by, the wicked are gone, but the righteous stand firm forever” (Proverbs 10:25).
The New Living Translation (NLT) reads this verse this way: “When the storms of life come, the wicked are whirled away, but the godly have a lasting foundation.”
You know what I think? I think I’ve gotten it wrong.
See, I’ve mistaken “a lasting foundation” for a life of blue skies.
