Conflict & Courage: January 13th
• Even after the Fall, nature remained a teacher—revealing both the reality of sin and the mercy of God.
• Decay, struggle, and loss testify to rebellion, yet beauty, order, and fragrance still speak of divine love.
• Creation reminds us that redemption was promised immediately—what was lost can be restored through Christ.
“But ask now the beasts, and they shall teach thee… Who knoweth not in all these that the hand of the Lord hath wrought this?” — Job 12:7–9
