The sun is always shining.

As I was driving this morning the sun was rising above the low clouds.  The day was brightening as the sun rose higher in the sky.  It struck me (not the first time), that the sun is always shining.  Even in the middle of the night the sun is shining, just not where I can see it.  

Even in our darkest hour the sun is shining and it's up to us to wait, fight and pray our way through the darkness.  It's trust and perseverance that keep us together as we wait for the sun to shine on us again.

With this metaphor it reminded me that sometimes we are the light in someone's darkness.  Even with the light from a simple birthday candle can illuminate an entire room.  

Be the light for someone today.
