I look into the pre-dawn darkness, God, and all I see is my own reflection in the window glass. But I will wait for the dawn, for I cannot make my way through the day without light and Light. There are times when I would like to turn on your immediate presence, like a light switch on the wall, but I realize there is meaning in the waiting, at least there can be if I allow it. In that meantime, I will sit here before the dancing flames in the fireplace, and I will enjoy their spontaneity, their reminder of the joy of faith’s dance with you. And with the coming of light, as shapes and forms appear from the diminishing darkness, I will raise my arms in welcome and I will say in my heart: Here is Light!
It is so, Christ of God. It is so. Amen.
Shining Spirit 
May there be the Light.
Amen and Amen again.
You too light up our lives, when you share the light of the Gospel. Thank you so much.
