" Meanwhile, here is some good news you can use: even when light fades and darkness falls - as it does every single day, in every single life - God does not turn the world over to some other diety. Even when you cannot see where you are going and no one answers when you call, this is not sufficient proof that you are alone. There is a divine presence that transcends all your ideas about it, along with all your language for calling it your aid, which is not above using darkness as a wrecking ball that brings all your false gods down - but whether you decide to trust the witness of those who have gone before you, or decide to do whatever it takes to become a witness yourself, here is the testimony of faith: darkness is not dark to Gold: the night is as bright as the day." Learning to Walk in the Darkness, Barbara Brown Taylor
