Darkness outside


1 Thessalonians 5:23 

23 Now may the God of peace Himself make you completely holy and

may your spirit and soul and body be kept entirely blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ.

 

It is still dark outside I am safe in the realm of light

It does not take too much to penetrate the unseen

The bible is so right even a candle-light is bright

That in the dark of life as such triggers hopeful dreams

 

Salvation’s call for sure enlightens the entire universe

It penetrates anywhere as it flows from the Throne of God

Who can endure this really unless blinded by yourself

not to absorb this truth somewhere in the unrest of the soul?
