dont know if anyone reads this
I thought this was interesting

light and darkness have been used over time to represent good and evil in religion. Dark is bad, Light is good. Darkness is the absence of light, darkness can not be light until light shines on it
If this is true and we are darkness along with the world then Christ is the light and came to take us into the light because only the Light can do this. Other religions do not follow this, they talk about righteousness and goodness but in the end the person has to become light alone without God.
Think about this when you see magnificence of light.

Perfect Love

Because of the LORD's great love we are not consumed, for his compassions never fail.They are new every morning; great is your faithfulness. I say to myself, "The LORD is my portion; therefore I will wait for him." The LORD is good to those whose hope is in him, to the one who seeks him
Lamentations 3: 22-25

I struggle a lot with guilt and often times begin to question His calling on my life. What if I can't do it? What if I'm not strong enough. But the answer to my question is simple... I can't... and I'm not... But the God who can not fail is.

Furthermore who am I to question His reasoning. Guilt is an offshoot of pride... strange huh... It is the assumption that we deserve all that we have, but have failed by our own strenghth. Rather life is a gift that is not hinged on our power, but by His grace. So there is no shame, no guilt, no fear. Just perfect love.
