Thoughts Day 8
When the electricity goes out and you are in a dark room, what do you do? Do you like being in the dark place? Do you have control over the darkness? What do you focus on? Is there a tiny bit of light that is coming from somewhere? Will that small sliver of light be the place to put your attention? Will the light coming through a crack lead you out of the dark place? Was that light always there, even before the power went out and the artificial light stopped? Do you want more real light? What does it do to the darkness? Where do you physically go to get real light? Where can you go to get real light inside your mind? Which gives you more physical freedom, light or darkness? Which gives you more mental and emotional freedom, light or darkness? Which do you experience the most each day? What does freedom feel like? What does peace feel like? Is there a small sliver of light in your inner life? Can that light be covered up like pulling the curtains over a window? Can the curtains be removed again? Are you afraid to remove the curtains? When you are in a dark room, do you see things that aren’t really there? When you are in a dark room, do things look different? When the light comes into the room, how do those things look? How do they make you feel when you see them in the light? Did you lose sleep? Does darkness inside your mind make you lose sleep? Can light help? Where is a tiny sliver of light to focus on? Do you want more light within your mind? Do you have enough light to see the way things really are? Or are you seeing shadows? John 8:12 I am the light of the world James 1:17 Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change
