Divine Intervention… Christine McDonald
Contrary to what we may have been taught to think, unnecessary and unchosen suffering wounds us but need not scar us for life. It does mark us. What we allow the mark of our suffering to become is in our own hands. —bell hooks
Corrie Ten Boom, a Dutch Christian who helped many Jews escape Nazi Germany before being captured herself, once wrote, “There is no pit so deep, that God’s love is not deeper still.” In her book The Hiding Place, she tells stories of flea−ridden work rooms in the concentration camp that were so grossly infested that the Nazi guards wouldn’t enter. Because of this, she was able to tell others of God’s love without being interrupted.
There is no darkness that can hide us from His gaze, and no earthly journey that can truly carry us away from
His heart. He watches, provides, pursues, and waits for each of us. Then, as we look back over the course of our lives and give the light a chance to shine on areas we had previously written off to the dark, we discover He was with us all along.
Esther 4:14 says, “If you keep quiet at a time like this, deliverance and relief for the Jews will arise from some other place, but you and your relatives will die. Who knows if perhaps you were made queen for just such a time as this?”
Once we make the discovery that our life has purpose, regardless of how we’ve lived up to that point, we can begin to walk out on a whole new journey with a fresh passion. We are all granted a choice. We can keep doing as we have always done, or we can choose the path intended for us and designed for us all along. Who knows if perhaps you were made for such a time as this?
