No Matter How Dark, The LIGHT Will Always Shines Through

Sweet Bee's encounter...Walking on the beach this evening, I saw the most amazing thing. In the distance to my right, there were a small bunch of grey clouds in a clear sunset sky. In the middle of clouds was continuous lighting. I had never seen anything like it. It continued for some time. To my left, a still ocean with soft warm waves was fading to black, as if nothing was out there.  Above, the stars were slowly starting to appear.

I sat on the warm sand to take in everything going on around me. I thought to myself, “this is the most amazing thing I have ever seen”. I wanted to share it with someone… anybody but there was no one around. I couldn’t even use my phone. A still voice soft said “no distractions, just be still and see me speak.” I was alone but not lonely, there was a comforting presences around me.

While sitting there, I witnessed the clouds to the back of me full of lightening like 4th of July. I thought to myself that must be some storm. Above me, not one cloud but pretty little stars and a warm breeze hugged me all around.  Ahead of me I could hear the waves but all I saw was darkness, and 4 or 5 little lights from boats that were at a far distance.

Then I think I blinked and there appeared the moon out of nowhere. At first it was dim but as I focused on it more it became brighter and brighter and more defined. It lite up the ocean and everything became so clear. What I saw was God telling me that He is always in control. Even though I don't know what the future holds and I am so glad the past is behind me. But where I am right now is where God wants me to be.  Though the future may be unknown God will show me the light as I keep moving forward. Also no matter how dark it is, the Light will always shines through.  

 Not that I have already attained, or am already perfected; but I press on, that I may lay hold of that for which Christ Jesus has also laid hold of me. Brethren, I do not count myself to have apprehended; but one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind and reaching forward to those things which are ahead, I press toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. ~ Philippians 3:12-14 (NKJ V)

For it is the God who commanded light to shine out of darkness, who has shone in our hearts to give the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Jesus Christ. ~ 2 Corinthians 4:6(NKJV)

Therefore we do not lose heart. Even though our outward man is perishing, yet the inward man is being renewed day by day. For our light affliction, which is but for a moment, is working for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory, while we do not look at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen. For the things which are seen are temporary, but the things which are not seen are eternal. ~ 2 Corinthians 4:16-18 (NKJV)
