“When I look up on the darkest night…when I reach out
for him… he is there. When I am lonely as I can be, then I know… God
shines his light on me.” – Lyrics of a song by Van Morrison and Cliff Richard.
IT is a wonderful, catchy old R&B song, sung and hummed with rhythm
and feeling that warms the listener’s heart (mine, certainly). But it also
gives pause for thought for those who do look to God to light the way when the
nights of their lives are truly dark and lonely. When we walk in the dark,
God leads us by the hand - to Jesus, for He is the light of the world. Christ
said: ‘I am the light of the
world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have
the light of life.’” – John 8: 12
