Every Christian faces storms in life. Throughout the world many are being persecuted, even murdered for their faith. And there are other forms of suffering which may not threaten our lives; physical pain, emotional pain, broken dreams, conflicts, tensions and stress. Peter's message, written and inspired by the Holy Spirit, offers good news to Christians. God has given us the power and strength to face any and every situation, power to overcome every form of suffering, and the peace and calm which is always present for those who know Jesus Christ.
