March 20, a Tuesday,
Is the first day of spring.
Spring is heralded by the vernal equinox.
Vernal has to do with spring.
Equinox means something like “equal night”,
Which means day and night are exactly equal.
Twice a year we have an equinox,
Once in the spring, once in the fall.
On these days, light and darkness are exactly equal.
However, in our faith lives, and in our lives in general,
We have a tendency to let the darkness overpower the light.
But on the equinox,
There is just as much light as there is darkness.
And the thing about spring,
From March 20th on, the light increases daily while
Darkness decreases.
Yes!!!
Remember that.
Remember, because, you see,
You can choose which part you live in.
You can choose which part you will focus on.
There is light and there is darkness.
But the light is increasing:
The light of Christ,
God’s power through Jesus’ resurrection.
God ushering in the new age of the Kingdom.
God’s promise of a new and exciting future.
God’s light reflecting to the world through our lives.
There is light and there is darkness.
But the light always wins.
Remember that!
Remember that as we live as “children of the light”.
(Ephesians 5: 7 - 9)
