Can there be a good morning after a bad night? Joy after sorrow? Jubilant songs to replace our mournings? From the morning we’re hatched from the womb, till the night we’re dispatched to the tomb, our lives are matched with pain and grief. But we ought not despair when our days are dark or when we bid farewell to our loved ones! Good night shouldn’t be goodbye, for there’ll be a good morning. A song reminds us of a glorious day coming, “When no heart aches shall come …No more clouds in the sky…No more tears to dim the eye” (1 Thessalonians 4:13-18; Revelation 21:4). With Christ, the laments of our dreaded “Good Night” can be replaced by the songs of “Good Morning!” Morning, not mourning!—Samuel Koranteng-Pipim
