"This candle gives little light,And does not make the darkness bright.
But keep it lit and you will find:
Far better this than being blind.
One little flame when all is night,
Proves there is such a thing as light.
One answered prayer when all is gone,
Will give you hope to wait for dawn."
John Piper
This is pretty much it when faced with Christ's painful providence, when in sorrow we hope in His Sovereignty.
