Dark nights

When you’re lost in the dark and there’s no moon to light your path, look to the stars to guide your way.
God made the stars for such a reason as this. In fact people in the ancient times had no way of telling which direction they were heading  without the stars. Stars are always up there in the sky, but they can only be seen at night when it’s dark.

Sometimes we face uncertainties, and the sun and moon are no longer there to light our next step. But when we experience such darkness, we realize how bright the stars shine to guide our way, and have always been there too.

Similarly, when facing trials and difficulties we tend to draw closer to God, looking to him for direction and realizing he’s ever-present. And so, I pray that you’ll too realise the importance of certain trials in our lives that allow us to live in awareness and dependence of God, so as to be lead to increased spiritual maturity.
