There is a little story I should te...Hello Guillie.<br />There is a little story I should tell you about, it happened to me a few years ago. I was at home on the farm in Cape Town one evening when Eskom, the South African power facility, implemented Load Shedding (Black out) they do that here. Anyway I was in my kitchen and had a candle on the window sill, only one, when I noticed a truck parked about 100 meters away with the reflective tape on the side glowing very brightly. At first I couldn't work out where the light that was being reflected was coming from, it was very bright. Being quite a curious person who always wants to know why and understand what's going on. I puzzled over this for a while then by accident I moved the candle to the counter top and lo and behold, the light disappeared. I was amazed. I lifted the candle again and there was the light all over again. This got me to thinking about what is written in the bible about how the darkness will never overcome the light. Here was a demonstration of the truth in God's word, this little candle's light was traveling more than 200 meters to the truck and back with no diminishing of it's visual impact. That happening has carried me through many dark times in my life and I cherish what God had revealed to me that night. Trust to the light no matter what.<br />Thought you may like that little story. Blessings to you and your's this coming year, Geoff in South Africa.Geoff Maritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15182608110318394094noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436812892124383603.post-27651994507986143382016-01-05T22:14:53.372-04:002016-01-05T22:14:53.372-04:00Wonderful and what a surprise to have Tom Waits re...Wonderful and what a surprise to have Tom Waits read itBirgithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09439720285857050428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7436812892124383603.post-72170027231391999972016-01-05T19:28:05.677-04:002016-01-05T19:28:05.677-04:00That's beautiful.
