It is the Light

100_1726

Memories of our most sacred moments will often find their way,

drifting,

into our hearts

with our void seeking,

as if sunlight sparkles

on the surface of the ocean,

filtering

through the deep.

I wonder

if we are more than waves

rolling towards the shore,

curling

into a magnificent spirit,

crashing

then washing the Earth.

It is the light isn’t it?

That moves us beyond

the pain,

into the new hope shifting

taking shape

within us.

  2. Yay! It is the light, the light of Jesus moving in to inspire and encourage hope!!! Be grateful for His light and His presence. I heard the best sermon about suffering this morning. It won’t be posted on their website until Wednesday. But then I’ll send you the link and hope that you will listen to it. It blessed me so much especially after the last few horrible days. Your posts just ger better and better Nico. I lift you and your beloved wife up in prayer as we face another, another week, and moments to share and love and learn!!! Love and hugs, N 🙂 ❤

    1. Thank you Natalie for your wonderful comments! I wasn’t really thinking of Jesus specifically here, but I would like to hear the sermon. Peace to you my friend and great blessings.

  3. Here’s the passage I wanted to send to you Nico. The author is writing as if the Lord, himself, were speaking to us. “Worship Me in the beauty of holiness. I created beauty to declare the existence of My holy Being. A magnificent rose, a hauntingly glorious sunset, oceanic splendor–all these things were meant to proclaim My Presence in the world. Most people rush past these proclamations without giving them a second thought. How precious are My children who are awed by nature’s beauty; this opens them up to My holy Presence. Even before you knew Me personally, you responded to My creation with wonder. This is a gift, and it carries responsibility with it. Declare My glorious Being to the world. The whole earth is full of My radiant beauty–My Glory!”
    Give unto the Lord the glory due His name; worship the Lord in the beauty of His holiness. ~Psalm 29:2
    And they were calling to one another: “Holy, holy, holy is the Lord Almighty; the whole earth is full of His glory.
    ~Isaiah 6:3
    The name of the book is JESUS CALLING, by Sarah Young. If I had your address I would send you a copy of it. Hugs and blessings, N 🙂 ❤

    1. Wow, this is amazing! Thank you so much Natalie! I missed this at first so I’m glad I found your message. I will check out the book. I really needed and appreciate these words! Peace to you my friend and healing, and rich blessings.
