Sense
Sometimes you see all things coalesce and collide in a way that demonstrates function and order in its particular dysfunction. You get an angle on the chaos that shows the lines and designs of God’s hand at work around you, without having to wait years to make sense of it all. Prayer will sometimes bring you there. Without prayer it’s impossible. And of course, even though you may see it, you may not be able to see how it’s unfolding. Where it leads. We’re not privy to that, thanks be to God. It isn’t a mercy without significance.
