Just a quick "hadn't thought of that before..."
In the New Testament, Paul was often thwarted from visiting the church he wanted to talk to, be with, check on, etc. Most of the time, he was in prison and had to settle for writing a letter.
But because he was in prison and had to write his correspondence down, we have many of our New Testament books!!! Just think, something that frustrated Paul and made it harder on Paul to communicate to his churches, has proven to be a blessing 2000 years later and the blessing just keeps on blessing.
How awesome/scary is it to imagine all the ways God is working for good now and we can't even see it...and we may not ever know it...but it'll bless generations to come until our Lord returns.
