Marvelous...

We marvel at ourselves. We take our flashlight out in the midst of the blinding noon day sun and proclaim, “Look how far I can see!” Then night comes and our little light isn’t nearly enough. We curse God for the dark. We despair. We fail to remember, hope for or pray for the dawn. But morning comes anyway, not because we deserve it, but because God is Good. Light pierces the darkness again and finally we marvel at God and we call out to that future time when he will light up eternity and darkness will be no more. Until then I pray for humility and dependency on what the day brings. With hope I’ll endure the night knowing that Joy comes in the morning.
