Light in the Darkness

We have had some rain over the last day or so. I don't know the exact rainfall total but I can tell you it has been significant. When you have little ones, a day of rain can seem, to them, like an eternity. They wonder if the rain will ever end and if they will ever see the sun again. They wonder if there will ever be light after the darkness.

We get in our spiritual storms from time to time as well, and we have the same feelings, concerns, and wonders. Will things ever be right again? Will this ever pass? Will I make it through? Will there ever be light? How will I ever find my way? If you're a child of GOD, I have good news...

Today's word is Psalm 112:4, NIV, which reads, "Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for those who are gracious and compassionate and righteous."

If you are GOD'S child, you can rest assured that not only will there be light at the end of the storm but GOD will be a beacon through the storm. Even when it seems the darkest, even when it seems the most hopeless, even when you feel the most helpless, you can take comfort in GOD'S all-penetrating light.

Storms will come. No matter who you are, what you own, where you live, storms will come. There will be minor "pop-up showers" and major earth-shaking thunderstorms but GOD will be in the midst holding, comforting, and enlightening His children.

Be Blessed,
Mickey T
