The shadow proves the sunshine

We all have a vague concept of how we were created to be. Our broken spirits and our desperation are the results of the disparity between our fallen state and the consciousness of the state of grace that we were meant to embrace.

With all of this pain, therefore comes the recognition that there is a way of existing without it. The fact that we recognize the presence of pain proves that it is possible for pain to be obsolete (to NOT exist).

The shadow proves the sunshine.
When we dwell in darkness, Lord, help us to remember the brief bouts of sunshine that life sometimes affords - also help us to remember that the existence that You are calling us to is one of eternal sunshine (Son-shine).
