“As you do not know what is the way of the wind, or how the bones grow in the womb of her who is with child, So you do not know the works of God who makes everything. In the morning sow your seed, And in the evening do not withhold your hand; For you do not know which will prosper, Either this or that, Or whether both alike will be good.” Ecclesiastes 11:5-6 (NKJV)

Have you ever noticed when the sky is the most beautiful? It’s either before darkness comes or when darkness is leaving. God truly shows off His glory through those magnificent colors and a little of the sun shining through.
One thing we can be certain of, the sun rises at daybreak and sets at nightfall. Notice the words break and fall when describing darkness. Sometimes God’s glory comes before darkness falls on our life, and other times God’s glory comes when He breaks through the darkness to bring a new day.

We don’t know everything about how God works, but we need to be faithful and trust Him in the darkness. It is difficult to do sometimes because darkness often brings hurt, heaviness, loneliness, despair, anger, confusion, and even loss. However, God gives us the reminder of His faithfulness that He is shining bright at the beginning of darkness falling and when the darkness breaks He comes bursting forth shining in all His Glory.

“Dear God, How thankful we are that You give us reminders of Your presence even in the darkest of hours. Help us to hold on to You until you break through the darkness and bring a new and glorious day to our lives.”

For His Glory,
