Obscure Observation

Honking horns, warmhearted waves, and lively laughter crowded the highway headed south. Sunbeams followed suit. Camaraderie and coffee, lingering laughter, and abiding agreement. Soon, the air cooled, goosebumps grew, birds chirped, and pups were perplexed. From a sunset glow to dimness-cheers than tears. Complete silence. Utter awe. “Thank you, God, for your miracles.”

A perfect alignment,
moon’s orbit and distance,
The degree of the tilt,
determined its existence.

Darkness diminished rapidly,
as it eclipsed the light
A few seconds to minutes,
the day seemed like night.

Do you seek shelter,
in a time of the unknown?
Or embrace it unflinching,
witnessing the miracles shown?

The pathway is riddled
with shadows and light,
Which way do you travel,
the left or the right?

LOOK UP, witness rare,
a new moon, the sun’s rays
“Don’t eclipse possibilities,
and stay grateful,” I pray.
K.L. Hale

Light obscured by darkness. A rare event, a rare cancer, obscured definitions and explanations. Obscurity.

Miracles in-the-making. Pain to progress. Tears to laughter. Helplessness to hope.

Has hope been obscured by helplessness? Is life double-downed in darkness or are you standing in the light? Do you know how RARE and uniquely made YOU ARE? Do you REALLY know how loved you are?

I know a MAN WHO CAN love you when you feel unlovable, provide light in the darkness, and replace human impossibilities and obscurities with evolutionary eternity!

“For once, you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light!” Ephesians 5:8

“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.”-Brene Brown

God rescued me from the grave, and now my life is filled with light. Job 33:28

But if we are living in the light, as God is in the light, then we have fellowship with each other, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1:7

“Don’t turn away. Keep your gaze on the bandaged place. That’s where the light enters you.”
― Rumi

Jesus replied, “My light will shine for you just a little longer. Walk in the light while you can so the darkness will not overtake you. Those who walk in the darkness cannot see where they are going.” John 12:35

“Pointing to another world will never stop vice among us; shedding light over this world can alone help us.”-Walt Whitman

As the world keeps spinning, the opposition may orbit.

My joy is unobscured. In HIM my hope always stays. For faith and my Master turned my night into day.

Have faith💛

“The baby bat
Screamed out in fright,
‘Turn on the dark,
I’m afraid of the light.”
― Shel Silverstein
