Lights In The Night

 On our return to the graveyard at dusk, I saw something unexpected. Many different kinds of tiny lights, dancing in the fall breeze. Made me think of the bible verse "The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it." 






“In the midst of darkness, light persists.” 

—Mahatma Gandhi

 

                                “In order for the light to shine so brightly, the darkness must be present.” 

—Francis Bacon

 

                                              “Only in the darkness can you see the stars.”

 —Martin Luther King Jr.

The light will not shine and stand out if there is no darkness.

Well, that was something special!
And after the darkness, the light comes and shows us the way.
Have a wonderful week!

Our Erica and Chad live in a neighborhood that has its entrance right across the street from a large cemetery. Whenever we leave their house after dark, that cemetery is glowing all over with the solar grave lights. I love seeing that. xoxo
