“A land of darkness, as darkness itself; and of the shadow of death, without any order, and where the light is as darkness.” Job 10:22
In absolute darkness, there is no light, and there are not any shadows.
“Woe unto them that call evil good, and good evil; that put darkness for light, and light for darkness; that put bitter for sweet, and sweet for bitter!” Isaiah 5:20
We are a chosen people, and as such, we are to shine the light into the darkness. Our nation may be getting darker, but as God’s people seek Him, we will get brighter.
Remember, “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” John 1:5
