Like David, we too face moments of pain, suffering, and sorrow that seem to linger like the darkness of the night. Yet, the promise lies in the certainty that these hardships are temporary, and brighter days will eventually dawn.
Main Points:
1. Everyone has “night seasons” in their lives. These are the times when all we can see are storm clouds on the horizon. The night season is when life seems dark and bleak and we don’t know what tomorrow holds. We don’t know when the dawn will break.
2. The ability to praise God in our night seasons is the result of true faith. It's easy to praise and celebrate God's goodness when life is smooth sailing, but the real test of faith comes in the midst of challenges.
3. The night season refines us and tests our faith, much like gold is purified in fire. It brings to reality those things we only knew by faith. It turns theory into fact. We experience God in ways we never had before. In the darkest moments, we discover the depth of God's presence and mercy. These are the times when our reliance on God grows.

They will be his people, and God himself will be with them and be their God. ‘He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There will be no more death’ or mourning or crying or pain, for the old order of things has passed away.
