THE SUN IS ALWAYS SHINING

"And made the moon therein a light,
and made the sun a lamp? "
(Nuh:16)


The Sun Is Always Shining
Remember the Sun
There are times when gloom or
darkness causes us to momentarily lose sight of the light. Although it is at these
times when the thought of the sun can help us. Its warm, glowing rays brighten
even our thoughts, and it’s good to remember that despite appearances the sun
s shining right now. We may not be able to see it at this very moment, but if clouds
block our view, they are only filtering the sun’s light temporarily. If darkness has
fallen, we know that the sun is still shining at this very moment somewhere not too
far away, and it’s only a matter of time before it will shine on us again.

When we remember that the sun is
still shining,
we know that things are still in motion in the universe.
Even if life feels like it is at a standstill, sometimes all we need to do is have faith and
wait for the time when everything is in its perfect place. Or we can we can choose to
follow the cues of the sun and continue doing our work and shining our light, even
when we can’t yet see results. In doing so we exercise our patience, making sure we
are prepared when opportunity knocks and all other elements are in their right and
perfect places.

The sun also reminds us that our own
shining truth is never extinguished.
Our light shines within us at all times,
no matter what else occurs around us.
Though the sun gives us daily proof
of its existence, sometimes our belief
in our own light requires more time.
If we think back, however, we can find
moments when it showed itself and trust
that we will see it again. Like the sun,
our light is the energy that connects us
to the movements of the universe and the
cycles of life and is present at all times,
whether we feel its glow or not.
