Today

is a day
of brilliant sunshine.

Will you at any moment
during this day
stop to recognize this fact?

Very probably not.

You have taken it all
for granted;
just as you may

be taking for granted
the sharp, clear
light of Christ
that is shining
in your life.

The need
is to realize
a basic fact
of our Christian life:
that our lives are warmed
and lighted
by Christ.
 

The city does not need the sun or the moon to shine in it, for the glory of God lighted it, and the Lamb is its lamp.

(Revelation 21:23)
