GRATITUDE SHROUDED IN OBSCURITY

Life will be brighter than noonday, and darkness will become like morning.

Job 11:17

God’s guidance covers entire life. From time to time, it becomes concrete in smaller matters, but it is essential that the whole is well under control. God’s salvation history, the stages of the people of Israel and the individual life of God’s own in the Bible show that God’s will and plan are inevitably fulfilled. The former generations used to say: God’s mills grind slowly but surely. – Perhaps you also have experience of the work of God’s left hand? How dark times have allowed God’s light to shine into your life? They have helped you to notice how many reasons for gratitude you already have that were previously shrouded in obscurity.
