THE GLIMMER OF HOPE
written by Vicki F. Duffy

Have you ever been to a concert or a place where everything goes dark, then everyone puts a lighter on?  
Instantly, in what was utter darkness is now full of glimmering light.  Imagine that everyone turns off their
lighters, all but one.  In that darkness you will be able to see that light flickering, that glimmer, no matter how
dark it is.  No matter how dark,
that light shines on through and cuts through that darkness, making its light
known.

Darkness cannot capture light, no matter how small that light might be.

Sometimes life circumstances can feel as though they are overwhelming, and at times totally unbearable.  
BUT, just as the light glimmers in the darkest of darkness,
there is hope.  There is hope even in what might
appear as the most hopeless of situations.  You will get through this situation, as God is for you!

The next time you have a situation that seems hopeless, or when you think your life offers no hope
whatsoever, remember the glimmer of light.  Think on how that
small glimmer of light breaks through the
darkest of darkness
.  Then when you see that in your mind, apply that to your situation and realize that even if
it is only a glimmer, it is something, and that offers hope.

Your light will not burn out, you have hope and a future!
