Faith and Retrospectoscope
February 22, 2022
The Bible calls the follower of Christ to have faith and to trust in God. An additional spiritual exercise is the “attentive” life that allows us to look back in reflection over past events and see the hand of God working. A medical colloquialism is the “retrospectoscope” that allows doctors to make diagnoses in hindsight. Studying Joseph’s life-story we see that what his brothers intended for harm, brought about deliverance for God’s people. God is always working things together for good for those who love Him and are called according to His purpose. Sermon text: Genesis 45:1-11.
