The Darkroom of Life

Posted By on September 27, 2010

“He hath set me in dark places…” —Lamentations 3:6, 26

To develop photographs, the film must first be taken into a darkroom. Only after the chemicals have done their work in the dark is it safe to expose the negatives to light and produce the final prints. The light, which would have destroyed the film, now brings out its beauty.

God takes us through “darkroom” experiences to develop the image of Christ in us (Rom. 8:28-29). Then we are ready to be displayed in the light.

Are you in God’s darkroom? Then don’t despair. The Lord is developing the beauty of Christlikeness within you for display in His art gallery of eternity! Do not seek to get back into the light too soon. Await His perfect timing, or you will spoil the imprint of His love on the film of your life.
