THE TRUE LIGHT

you are

When I was lying on the ground
Feeling I was too weak to stand
There you came with an open hand.

When I was there crying in vain
And what I felt was only pain
Only your words had kept me sane.

When I was hiding in the dark
And my presence just left no mark
You reminded me I'm a lark.

When I was there to keep my song
Hide them safe where they belong
You came to prove me I was wrong.

That's when I thought that I am weak
When only pain's the one that stick
And when I hid like I'm so sick. 

You're the true light that guides me through
My path's now clear because of you
Now I can show what I can do.

Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, "I Am the light of the world. If you follow Me, you won't have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life." John8:12 NewLivingTranslation
Beautifully done Dhaye ... Just follow that Light. It will lead you straight home...

Indeed. Thanks, Bro Neil. :)

Sometimes it is only on our darkest days that we begin to recognize and appreciate the true light. Wonderful piece about faith dhaye.

Yes, Gab. If we don't know how it is to be in darkness we will never know the difference how it is to be with the light.
Thanks, my friend. :)

There is nothing like feeling or seeing the true light in our lives. Some people take them long time , some short time to experience it...Another well written and rhyming poem...:)....................

[Dhaye]

I believe that God uses some people to make us see His light.
Thank you, Sami.

See the light or take away their light...Just wondering and asking ...I find that shocking...:)............

I'm not literal in reading the bible, Sami...so I interpret the verse as "Those who don't love God loves His enemy. God's enemy loves darkness. So when one lives in the darkness, he is evil. An evil deed deserves a punishment. But God is never a punisher. It is man's sins that leads him to his death...because the prize of sin is death. When a man chose to do evil, he chose to face his death."
Ah, I'm not used to discussing this matter to anyone. I know we have our beliefs and faith. I respect each' belief. Thanks again, Sami.
