When the darkness settles onto you, do not trust your perception. You are not trapped in a black cave.
You are standing instead in an open field. Look up. Even in the dark night, light persists. My light. My stars. The moon above. You are not in utter darkness.
The darkness of loss and despair threatens to defeat you. But I bring light to your darkness and you are not trapped. You are not alone.
Seek the light and run toward it. In those dark moments, remember my light.
I have never left you. The dawn is coming and my light will never be lost. Run to me.
In panic I cried out, “I am cut off from the Lord!” But you heard my cry for mercy and answered my call for help
