Shadowed Son you Jesus it was you who came true light clothed in darkness-- so i could comprehend you while i existed in false light the only light i had ever known-- the black light which had given me all the comfort i had ever asked for, bargained for, stole and lied for; would have died for. the black light which teased me like an uncle, neighbor or grandfather would-- naturally trusting in never doubting the authenticity of its love. the black light which had never given reason for me to lose faith in it: always it gave the things which pleased me; booze, drugs, popularity, success and friends. the black light gave me people a street car railing its way down one long, wide street of fun stopping frequently to take on new faces with new smiles; let off a few downtrodden people-- where they were headed i never asked something inside me put me at ease their destination was of no concern to me. always there was the endless steel track which guided the street car always the conductor smiled while exchanging pleasantries-- a gentleman. never did i feel awkward never did it cross my mind to get off the car never did i become bored: always there were new faces or exotic neon razzle dazzle to become absorbed in. the night was always as close as the sky and i was always close to the night. the black light never blinded me but eventually i became unable to focus any longer no longer could i discern who were my friends-- who were my foes the faces and the smiles grew expressionless the conductor now shouted profanities the racy red, blue and silver aura became a molten blend of ooze-- flowing hot and hellish from the core of a volcanic nightmare... my beautiful black light was at once exposed as black death! you Jesus it was you who came true light clothed in darkness that i might comprehend you! ©2004 Grover Gall |

This is very well written and deeply touching. Yes the world beckons with its false lights and it is so beautiful when we learn to see beyond, when He knocks at our heart's door to make us see the difference. Thank you. Love, Margherita |

I am so happy He came for you. His hands seem to be empty compared to the worldly delights offered by the son of blackness. But His hands offer everything that you need. I am glad you realized that. Love, Joyce |
