In the grand design of the universe, we see the interplay of light and dark. We hide in the dark, we play in the light. We are so enraptured by the light that we use it to guide our way. How is it then that we are surprised by people or experiences that delight us? Perhaps it is because of the nature of light itself. The experience of delight is one in which we feel touched by the light we perceive as outside of us on the inside. We are captured by something but it is not the thing outside of us which is stirred. It is the presence of light within us that is stirred in moments of delight. We are reminded at that moment that we have light within us. The all-powerful energy which literally lights up the world lives inside of us all the time. We are caught off guard by moments of delight and find joy in the surprise because it reminds us of who we are at our core. God encourages to experience moments of delight so that we can remember to carry ourselves connected to the light of life within us as we go through the world. Our connection to the light allows the love shown in light to be shared and displayed to the delight of others.
