The Darkness Could Not Comprehend Your Light

An ever flowing stream of grace and mercy
When others walk away You remained
Even when I fell short You forgave me
Your love is unconditional it’s always the same
Even when darkness tried to hide Your light
You shine in my heart always
To be in Your presence is a joy and wonder
I will praise you all of my days
I’m captivated by how all encompassing
Your love for me has been so real
Even on days when You don’t speak
I Know by your blood I am sealed
I wait but not always patiently
For the sound that You are near
The harsh issues of life attempt to divide us
Your word tells me never to fear
Even the deep horror of night situations
Our bond can never break
The darkness fails to comprehend
You gave your life for my sake
You are the One everlasting
Who remains when all others turn away
Sometimes clouds interfere with Your Sonlight
But I know You hear when I pray
Your love has been proven in the price
For me You were willing to pay

He is a wonderful God.

It is true.
When others leave you he is always there.
Sometimes it is hard to understand why ...when life is so confusing.
Why did this happen when he is there with us, but at least he is.
Sometimes our prayers are answered differently than what our heart hopes to receive.

I love your imagery. I've been reading "Conversations With God" by Neale Donald Walsch. We are all part of the light.

That's lovely. Even in our darkest hour, God is always there.
