God works through means. Sometimes those means are obvious: Word and Sacrament. Other times it is more subtle: government, regulations, laws, and policies. Just because we can’t see what God is doing doesn’t mean he’s not doing anything. God is at work. Whether it’s Festus, Felix, or King Agrippa, God is at work. That applies even to the tree lady in Arlington. She played a role in God’s work which we may never fully understand.
