359. Before Dawn - Daily Dose of Wisdom

They say the most profound darkness comes just before the dawn. The harshest oppression of our forefathers in Egypt came just before their liberation.

That was a coarse darkness of slavery of the body. Today it is a darkness of the soul, a deep slumber of the spirit of Man. There are sparks of light, glimmerings of a sun that never shone before —-but the darkness of night overwhelms all.

Prepare for dawn.

before the dawn

Jacob's ladder grew out of the depth of the dark allowing him to be illuminated by the dream, as he saw the future. So to is a person renewed after slumber with the illumination for the following day. Si it can be seen that the light will eminate from the dark.
