In this moving episode, Marlin shares the power of an old hymn written by William Cowper in 1779, “God Moves in a Mysterious Way.” The lyrics speak straight to the heart: “God moves in a mysterious way, His wonders to perform… Behind a frowning providence He hides a smiling face.” Marlin reminds us that even when we cannot see or understand what God is doing, we can trust His sovereign, never-failing skill. These short, heartfelt Minutes with Marlin deliver quick moments of wisdom, faith, humility, and encouragement—perfect for busy homestead days when we need a gentle reminder of what really matters.
