What have your experiences with loss taught you? We all face loss as a part of this life no matter who we are. Losses can affect us, whether big or small. And many of them are just part of living in this fallen world. But sometimes, God chooses to take something precious away from us because we’re on the wrong track. He works to get our attention before it is too late by removing something important from our lives. We may feel like God is being unkind…. but He is truly being good. God brings tremendous loss to Egypt so that Pharaoh will respond to God’s command. In the end, Pharaoh loses even the audience with God’s prophet, Moses. When a big loss isn’t enough to turn us from wrong, our Lord will find a way to use loss yet again to show us what we’re hurtling towards. Let our prayer be that we will hear God in the small losses instead of needing the big ones to get our attention.
