Reflections

“But you don’t understand the present times.”In general, a sign is an indica- tor that suggests or signals the presence of some condition. And in general, too, we are very good in this. We know that the existence of smoke indicates fire, the heavy clouds  warn  of an impending rain, high body temperature hints at fever. Our farmers know the right time for planting just looking up at the sky. But we seem to miss seeing signs in other aspects of our life that could bring much spiritual and transcendent benefits. The many things that we go through in life could also be signs telling us about our spiritual health and the state of our faith. Other than looking at the conditions of our environment we should be cog- nizant of order of our life as fol- lowers of Jesus. Jesus is at work in our life in many mysterious ways. But we recognize Him at work only in those positive ones. Many times, we fail to recognize that even in the seemingly nega- tive happenings the Lord gives us signs that require sound in- terpretation and judgment. We overlook the message that could bring us to the right path, just as we fail to notice the blessings that misfortunes bring.
