There is no darkness powerful enough to withstand the light.
Even in the hands of a small child,
a single flame repels and transfigures blinding blackness
into harmless shadow.
Darkness is the absence of light.
Wherever light is, darkness cannot be.
By merely being present, light wins.
You are the light of the world.
All you have to do is let it shine.
“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:14-16
