Infinite, infinite, all-consuming,
overwhelming, infinite BLACK
SPACE
then slowly.....
somehow piercing the black
a pinprick.........a pinpoint....
one singular microscopic point
of the most intense white light ever
known
and the physical terror
of all that VAST
ENDLESS NOTHINGNESS
pushing
PUSHING
but with no physical force
SQUEEZING
that tiny pinprick of light
and the LIGHT
all the more INTENSE
in its tininess
pushing against the INFINITE
like a SILENT SCREAM
that's usually when I wake up.....
Someone wrote me these words one day. This person does not believe in God. The bible addresses darkness and light in numerous verses. Answers are there for ALL of us. We have to be willing to look for them and accept the truth when it hits us....OUCH! (myself included as I have been hit with truth too many times to count)
"Then spake
Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth
me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life."John
8:12 (KJV)
"And God said,
Let there be light: and there was light. And God saw the light, that it
was good: and God divided the light from the darkness."

lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path."

"And the LORD
went before them by day in a pillar of a cloud, to lead them the way; and by
night in a pillar of fire, to give them light;
to go by day and night" Exodus 13:21 (KJV)
"The light of
the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall
be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of
darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darkness, how great is
that darkness!"
Matthew 6:22-23 (KJV)
"But the path
of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and
more unto the perfect day. The way of the wicked is as darkness: they know not at what they stumble." Proverbs 4:18-19 (KJV)
"Ye are the
light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do
men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick and it
giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before
men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in
heaven."
Matthew 5:14-16 (KJV)
"For God, who
said, "Let light shine out of darkness, made his light shine in our
hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face
of Christ."

"O send out thy
light and thy truth: let them lead me;
let them bring me unto thy holy hill, and to thy tabernacles." Psalm 43:3 (KJV)
"You are all
sons of the light and sons of the day. We do not belong to the night or to
the darkness. So then, let us not be like others, who are asleep, but let us
be alert and self-controlled. For those who sleep, sleep at night, and those who
get drunk, get drunk at night. But since we belong to the day, let us be
self-controlled, putting on faith and love as a breastplate, and the hope of
salvation as a helmet. For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but
to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ. He died for us so that,
whether we are awake or asleep, we may live together with him."
1 Thessalonians 5:5-10 (NIV)
"Arise, shine;
for thy light is come, and the glory of the LORD is risen upon thee. For,
behold, the darkness shall cover the earth, and gross darkness the people:
but the LORD shall arise upon thee, and his glory shall be seen upon thee.
And the Gentiles shall come to thy light, and kings to the brightness of thy
rising."
Isaiah 60:1-3 (KJV)
"The LORD is my
light and my salvation; whom shall I fear?
the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid?" Psalm 27:1 (KJV)
"For with thee
is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light."

of the just is as the shining light,

commanded the light to shine out of darkness, hath shined 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 (KJV)

sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord:
walk as children of light" Ephesians 5:8 (KJV)

chosen generation, a royal priesthood, an holy nation, a peculiar people;
that ye should shew forth the praises of him
who hath called you out of darkness into his marvellous light" 1 Peter 2:9 (KJV)

the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is
light, and in him is no darkness at all."
