It’s not when hope’s flag is high in the sky, but when many bow their heads and groan “Why?” The darkest hour is the time for unwavering trust. The apostle Paul trusted at such a time. In shipwreck he said, “When neither sun nor stars appeared for many days and the storm continued raging, we finally gave up all hope for being saved” (Acts 27: 20), but then he went on to say, “Keep up your courage, men, for I have faith in God” (v. 25). The time to trust God is not when life is calm and sings its psalm; rather, it’s when the storms rage and our song is but a lisping cry.—Samuel Koranteng-Pipim
