Gratitude Journal – Day 235 – February 21, 2015

Light…
they say photography is light….and I cannot disagree. For when the light is all around us, it is easy to focus through the view finder as well as in life. All of the image, the lines, everything is lit just right and is crisp and clear.
And these are the good times, the times when all is right with the world. Everything seems to magically fall into place in that perfect moment. The moment or moments that we are drawn to, that we wish all life to be; that simple and carefree moment.
But in the darkness….we must look for the light, even if it is just a flicker. And once we find the light, we adjust our focus to that very spot. Slow down….look for the goodness, the love, the kindness, the soul… focus… ‘click’
The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. John 1:5
And as we look back at those times in our life, at the photograph in the playback menu, we see that the light is permeating the darkness; bringing a ray of hope to despair.
I focus my life, my being, my energy on the light; whether it be just a small flicker in the night, the lightning on a cloudy day or the full sunshine on a clear day.
Your word is a lamp for my feet, a light on my path. Psalm 119:105
Today I am filled with gratitude for the constant light in my life. I am comforted knowing that myDarln’ Robert Kenui Pope saw and sees the same light; and it is the light of His Love that connects us.
