But when we do choose to receive the Light, then God always chooses to reveal it to and in us. God always takes the chaos and speaks creation into it. God always takes the darkness and causes light to burst forth. And when God does this, it is always the beginning, it is always the start of a new creation. Today can be a new beginning.
Today can be a time of new creation.
The choice is ours. By the grace of God, may we receive the Word and the Light and really, truly, fully live. The Light shines. The darkness will not overcome it.
