The Light that is Brighter


I am an extreme outdoor person, but do not like to go out. Interesting trait in me, I like to spend all my evening standing in my patio close to my door. I really like to always keep my window open, even at night. I loved to sneak a look through the beautiful tree with bright green leaves through that window, sometimes with the moon tweeting through these leaves. But as this morning I woke up, and I peeped through this window, I saw the early morning sun light barely touching our planet.

 

God in his sweet words started speaking to me. He gently called me to get the glimpse of His unfathomable love. Yes, I am blessed with so many loving people in my life, any time I am in need I am surrounded by these people who will spend their time, and love with me without any expectations, but that never filled my heart, I had the void. I do believe God never intended humans to completely satisfy each other, without His influence. When our room gets darker in the night, I cannot see anything out through this window, it seems like there is no outside. I assume this is what happens when we live in darkness, we go through tough time, we are in trails, and we look through the window and find no light. We light up our rooms with the light bulbs; we desperately try to fill our darkness with something similar to God’s love, with mere human love. Remember this light cannot go on forever, and this light is not intended to replace the day light. Even if the glimpse of sunlight touches you, it can over throw this pitiful light emitted through these bulbs (even thousand bulbs). From far, far distance, even during the slight beginning of the dawn, sun light is much brighter than our light bulbs. We clearly see the world; we see that there is something out of this dark room, there is a beautiful outdoor (eternity). When we understand the glimpse of God’s love, it is over whelming, cannot be compared with the love we share in human form. I echo the great apostle Paul’s word, and, “pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge”.
Have a blessed day.
