LOVE THROUGH THE DARK



A father & little daughter buried the mother of the home. They were broken-hearted when they returned to the old home after the funeral & things were so different.

The little daughter was placed in her bed for the night as usual. The father retired, but could not sleep.
After a while the little daughter said, "Papa, it is so dark." And then, after a while the little child said, "Papa, you love through the dark, don't you?"

Away in the dark hours of the night the father looked up into the face of Jesus & said, "Jesus, thou dost love though it is dark."

Jesus loves His children & no night is so dark that He does not see us.

Ps 112:4 (NIRV): “Even in the darkness light shines on honest people. It shines on those who are kind and tender and godly.”

“Having the answers is not essential to living. What is essential is the sense of God's presence during dark seasons of questioning.” -  Ravi Zacharias.
