Darkness


People are in darkness

Not exactly literal darkness

but darkness

Darkness of the mind

Darkness of the spirit

The darkness that results in eternity of constant pain.

 

Let there be a light to shine brightly.

 

This darkness is a lethal poison.

It kills slowly sometimes.

Other times it kills immediately.

Some people decide to stay in the darkness.

Some decide to bathe in the light.

This darkness decieves.

It alters every idea, decision, and thought.

This darkness swallows you whole without conscent.

 

Let there be a light to shine brightly.

 

We have to spread the light that can NEVER be dimmed.

His name is God.

We are responsible for helping guide the blind.

We are here to be used as pawns by Him.

We are his way to communicate to the deaf and blind.

We have to teach that he is the ultimate antedote.

 

Let there be a light to shine brightly.
