There are days when it's easy to celebrate spring, and there are days when it seems like the broken things of this world far outweigh the glorious. The confusion today prevails much more than the clarity. It's not that anything particularly new or earth-shatteringly awful has happened. It's just one of those days where there are more questions than answers. Friends are hurting; prayers seem to go unanswered; situations remain the same.
But the test is in how you respond. You can be a victim of fate, you can turn an accusing finger at God, or you can trust Him. Trust that the sun still shines above a cloudy day. Trust that the Creator God who formed the glorious spring can redeem situations of hurt and abuse and sin. Trust that, though the world is fallen, it is not spinning wildly out of control.
He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.
-Colossians 1:17
The sun will shine, the spring will come, and there will be both justice and rest.
