Yesterday evening we had a power cut for about 3hrs. This followed a short but fairly violent storm. As the outsid light went down we managed to find the candles and turned the years back in the living room. No computer, no TV, no memory on the phone, no boiler, and too dark for me to read. How we depend on electricity, but don't realise it most of the time! (I think that the more technical we get the more fragile our life styles become.)
Then its rather like our attitude to God. We only seem to notice when he withdraws his influence. Of course he is always near, but some times he is appears to have forsaken us. Then we realise our dependence on him. Oh that we might value His presence more. - "I am with you even to the end of the world"
