**A Light In The Darkness**

The fog was setting in, and the cold surrounding my body.
I knew I was all alone, yet I felt a deeper presence.
The sky was grey, and the clouds were hiding what little sun could be seen.
That's when I saw it; the faintest touch of light peaking through the thick darkness.
I raised my head toward this light, and was overcome.
I imagined a choir of angels singing at this sight, and praising the Son.
I believed they were dancing, just enjoying being within His reach.
I couldn't help but smile, realizing my soon escape to this heavenly place.
The wind was harsh, and leaves were dancing all around me. They, too, adored Him.
I started walking, with no destination in mind. I was overwhelmed with greatness.
A new song was playing in my heart. A song of adoration, and awe.
It was the most amazing song I had ever heard, and I was prepared to sing it for the rest of my life.
All was quiet around me, but inside, an entire concert of joy was being conducted.
My steps became faster, until I was running. I was completely unable to stand still.
I wanted to share this feeling with everyone.
I wanted someone else to experience this wonder with me, but no one was around.
It was still cold, and the fog still hung in the air. However, I was not alone.
More light began to shine through the clouds, and more joy filled my heart.
I was in a complete state of worship with the one I love.
A permenant smile overcame my face, and sweet praises escaped my mouth filling the air.
I hoped the moment would never end. I wanted more of this majestic overflow.
It was a completely perfect moment; it was a light in the darkness.

"God is our refuge and strength, an ever-present help in trouble."
Psalm 46:1

"I can do all things through Christ who strenthens me"
Philippians 4:13

Difficult moments, seek God.
Quiet moments, worship God.
Painful moments, trust God.
Every moment, thank God.
