Reflection # 5

            

          Dark Ages from the word itself this time of the history was really full of darkness like: plague, killing, and war. I learned this week that this is really time for everything. Not all the time is full of happiness and celebration but also time of mourning and suffering. This time was indeed the great period of suffering of many people. But in that time God used that as opportunities to spread again His word to lots of people in the whole Rome. He used emperor to spread Christianity.

            

             Sometimes I feel so bad when things went wrong or dark because for me it’s already the very saddest part in my life but I realized this time that God has still a purpose for that. Even I am in bad times God still use that time to know more about Him. Therefore, whether what conditions will happen in my life I should still praise Him because maybe because behind that bad times there is great time that He wants to show up for me.

            

              So, even Dark Ages was very brutal, bloody, and clothed with darkness God still has plan for that. Although it wasn't good to everyone but still Christianity worked at that time when God used very potential and influential people to spread His word and Name.
