FAITH SEES IN THE DARK
THE SUN TIPTOES IN THROUGH MY LATE MORNING WINDOW AND ALIGHTS ON THE OBJECTS SURROUNDING ME. MY TINY WORLD EXISTS OF THE BORDERS OF MY PROPERTY AND THE DARKNESS OF MY MIND (AS I CANNOT RESIST CHECKING OUT THE NEWS REPORTS.)
AND OF COURSE IT’S GOOD TO BE IN THE KNOW. WE ARE ALL SO AWARE OF THE RACISM THAT CONTINUES TO SHAME US AND THE VIOLENCE IT PERPETUATES. I TRY NOT TO LIVE IN FEAR FOR MY FAMILY(ESPECIALLY FOR MY DAUGHTER IN THE STATES), OUR COUNTRY, AND THE DECISIONS MADE BY THOSE IN POWER.
AND I AM GIVEN A GIFT BY ONE OF MY BEST FRIENDS. SHE QUOTES….I “FAITH SEES IN THE DARK.” KIERKEGAARD. AND I DO HAVE FAITH THAT ALL WILL BE WELL.
SO I LOOK TO ANOTHER FAVOURITE QUOTE : “AND NOW, DEAR BROTHERS AND SISTERS,ONE FINAL THING. FIX YOUR THOUGHTS ON WHAT IS TRUE, AND HONOURABLE, AND RIGHT, AND PURE,AND LOVELY, AND ADMIRABLE. THINK ABOUT THINGS THAT ARE EXCELLENT AND WORTH OF PRAISE.” PHILIPPIANS 4:8
AND THERE ARE SO MANY OF THESE THINGS TOO.
I WILL TURN MY THOUGHTS TO THE LIGHT AND FIND PEACE TODAY.
