pretty dim

Tuesday April 1st, Ephesians 5:  8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light.  Just as light allows us to see the world as it is, the light of the Lord allows us to see the world as it should be.  As it should be, as in the way it was created, and as in what it was called at creation, which was and still is, good.  When our eyes are open we can look into the eyes of others and see there the good of God within them.  Yes I know, there are the Hitler’s of the world as well as those who want to call everyone they disagree with, Hitler.  There are many others that differing diverse groups would put into the same scoundrel category, but, I believe God, can see even see good in them.  After all, are they more evil, or are they more successful in the quest for power and control we are all quite capable of?  The light of Christ always turns our souls back to seeing the love of Christ.  The love of Christ as it is manifest in our lives, and the love of Christ as it is manifest in the lives of others.  Sometimes I must admit, that light is pretty dim, but it is there and God did call creation good including the dimmest among us, which is a category we all inhabit from time to time.
