From Darkness to Light

Dear God...

The darkness envelopes me and seems to bear its weight on my soul. I weep at a marrow level. I do not understand the pain, nor from where it it comes. I do not understand the inhumanity of your individuals toward each other. How does a person live with such memories? What do I do?

And at that perfect moment when I am willing to raise my face from my hands and look up, I see how futile my tears are. For in the midst of the blackness I see your sign to me that I am not now, nor ever have been, alone. And I see that through it all You have been there with me.

One more time... Thank You.
