God shines through all darkness.  The power of light and love is made visible to us with each new dawning of the sun and the moon.  God has provided a reminder for us every cycle of 24 hours.  Just in case we think the darkness of night will never end and just in case we start thinking we should only have light in our lives.  There is a balance of light and dark in our lives, in nature, in our hearts, and in our spirits.  It is the dance of the dawning.  The re-emerging of ourselves with each breath, each choice, and each turning of dark to light.  There is no mistake that while we are in daylight somewhere in the world others are in night-light.  God is present to all at all times and in all experiences of light and dark.  Embracing this understanding of God’s presence and love in and through us engenders compassion and breathes the essence of life in all things. God invites us to this balancing dance with God by our side.

My prayer for us is the willingness to try the dance of balancing love in the dark and in the light of our lives today.

If God is present as love in light and darkness, where might you today find a balance of love that yesterday you did not see?  Share in the comments.
