Sometimes our lives feel as if we are living through the longest night - what the mystics referred to as the 'dark night of the soul.' It is not anything new - Christians have been experiencing moments of despair for centuries, but this doesn't mean that God is silent or even deaf to our cries.
The Good News for all of us is that even in the darkest night of your life, God can still shine through. Every day from the 21 June ushers in brighter sunshine and longer days, until we eventually get to the longest day of the year (in December). With God there is always hope.
“If a man wishes to be sure of the road he’s travelling on, then he must close his eyes and travel in the dark.”- John of the Cross
2 Samuel 22:29 - "O Lord, you are my lamp. The Lord lights up my darkness."
Living in Grace
