The earth was covered in darkness until God spoke. He didn't even have to do anything. He merely spoke and action began. "God said, "Let there be light." and there was light." How amazing is that!

We often find ourselves in darkness. Sometimes it is because of our own doing, our own choices. On the other hand, sometimes it is because God wants us to learn how to rely solely on Him and not our own sight. No matter how we happened upon the darkness, God is there. He was there when there was no light on earth and He is there is when there is no light around you.

We do not need to question if God can help - He only has to speak and the light appears. We do not have to go find God, He is already there. We only have to call out to Him, surrender yourself, and ask for Him to turn on the light. And He will.

Darkness must always yield to light. Nothing is too power for the All-Powerful God. He speaks and brings light. All we have to do is reach out for Him and our darkness will begin to fall away to His magnificent light.
