The Night is Not Dark to You

Lord, the darkness is pressing in tonight, and with it comes an unease that I cannot fully explain. Something about the night makes me feel vulnerable — exposed — as if the things I can push away during the day have more power in the quiet hours. But Your Word reminds me: "If I say, 'Surely the darkness will hide me and the light become night around me,' even the darkness will not be dark to you; the night will shine like the day, for darkness is as light to you." — Psalm 139:11-12
