The night is a paradox - we have an instinctual fear of the darkness that it brings, but at the same time it offers us relaxation and peace. Our spirituality is similar - so much of it is unknown, which can be intimidating and sometimes even frightening, and yet the exploration of the unknown can be restorative. As you stay in the dark of night your eyes begin to adjust, your fears subside, and you slowly become comfortable in it. Likewise, as you question and explore your spirituality things slowly start to come into focus and you begin to be able to understand it and even find comfort in it.
John 14
27 Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
