...God lightens my darkness...
It’s night, Lord, and as I look outside my lighted room, all I see is black. I know there’s a patio with a large planter out there. I know there’s an oak tree that has finally gotten tall enough and leafy enough to give shade to the patio in the summer.
But all I see is black.
Grief causes me to see life as black, Lord, even though family and friends surround me, even though You are at my side. I know there is light even when all I see is dark. You are light, my light. Brighten my night. Pierce my darkness.
You are my lamp, O Lord, and my God lightens my darkness.
2 Samuel 22:29
