I think the light holds him there but we have to experience the darkness to "find" him.

I reflected a little on this past year and the dark moments I have had through out this year - worst flare I have ever experienced as well as other medical issues and enough grieving to last me for a while. I did have some dark moments and felt so lost and alone. But through that darkness God was there helping me along and I came out alive!

So, I guess the darkness that we all feel from time to time is actually a good thing and something we need to learn to embrace.

Sorry for such a deep random thought but it has been on my mind a lot this morning.
