Nothing but the Light

I will lead the blind by ways they have not known,
   along unfamiliar paths I will guide them;
I will turn the darkness into light before them
   and make the rough places smooth.
These are the things I will do;
   I will not forsake them.  

Isaiah 42:16

Sitting in the darkness as slivers of light begin to break through the dark morning sky.

Evergreen trees that sit in the corner waiting to be brought to life with the addition of lights and memories.

Hearts and minds that sit over-burdened and aching - waiting for the weight of life and pain to be taken away.

Bending down on knees with face to the ground giving it all over - to the God of Love, the God of Comfort, the God of Peace, the God of Light.

When we bear our souls to Him in the dark quiet night of our lives...

He will breathe new life into our weary souls.

He IS the Light that fills our heart & our life with love and memories.

He IS our Strength and our Shield.

Praying you will experience the Love, the Comfort, the Peace and the Light of Christ this Christmas season.
