It is the clearest most fresh time of the dawn as the sun begins to shine across our planet. It is full of promise and possibility so much so that the bird begin to sing, the flowers lights up, and it is though the whole world is given a fresh breath. What is interesting though is that right before the dawn breaks, we are at the darkest part of the night. So in order to fully experience the dawn we must be willing to be in the darkest of the dark times. Granted most people, myself included, are tucked away in our homes and possibly fast asleep. My dates begin during this darkest time and maybe that is why I am able to connect more with God because I cannot see otherwise. I recognize that I have to be willing to walk through the darkness to get to the dawn in my life. I have experienced times of great darkness where I could not even see the stars and I have experienced times of great dawn where I was bursting of light that could not contain itself. I would not trade any of it. My prayer for us today is that when we have moments of great darkness that we trust that we are simply cycling through on our way to a new dawn. Make it a great one!
