Have you ever watched fireworks on a sunny day?

Fireworks are made for nighttime because the dark sky provides the perfect backdrop. Some of us have a dark backdrop to our lives--great loss, financial strain, stress, or brokenness in a relationship or family. Just like fireworks, God has a way of lighting up the sky. The darkness remains but the light draws your attention away from it. This Fourth of July, while you watch the fireworks, remember God has not forgotten you. And that compared to your darkness, He is light—a spectacular light!
