Light and Shadow In the evening, by the lamplight, There's a certainty in me, That the radiance it's shedding Can never hope to be But a fraction of the glory That the Savior must employ, When He comes to claim His people And bring them home with joy! In the shadows of the twilight, Which hide away the day, There's a feeling of contentment And an inner voice to say, He is always watching over, Until daylight comes once more And will guide our craft forever, Till we reach that distant shore!

This is really good. I read it a couple of times, and I can see the dualism you're building, how while something can exist only as a fraction of that love we are all to inevitably expect, it is also a constant reminder of how He is manifest in every aspect of our lives, from the faintest ray of light. I haven't read you in a while. It's good to see your writing is of consistent quality. This was a pleasure.  Brian "God becomes as we are that we may be as he is." ~William Blake |
