Even Darkness

Even in darkness light dawns for the upright, for the gracious and compassionate and righteous man. ~ Psalm 112:4 (NIV)

What does this mean for you? Just think about it; I know what it means for me, but what does it mean for you? Does this promise bring you comfort, or do you shrug at it? The Lord says that even though we may be sinking into a spiritual abyss with no hope in sight right now, the Holy Spirit promises reprieve even if we can't see it, or know when it will happen. The darkness of Satan and his reign here on this earth will not accompany me to my final destination, Praise God! Satan's wickedness cannot hold a candle next to the Light of the World and will be denied entrance into the Holy of Holies. As long as we keep our faith and ourselves righteous in a very unrighteous world, then hope comes from knowing and remembering that in the end we believers know who wins and that the darkness will disappear. Keep your hearts pure, show compassion to others and be gracious to those in need whenever the opportunity arises. God will forgive our sinful ways as long as we continue to profess Him as our Lord and Savior, confess to him our sins and accept the gift he has given us through his son Jesus Christ who died on the cross for our sins....watch the hope rise and the darkness dissipate. ~ AMEN
