Daybreak

 

Year 9- Day 20: Today, I am grateful for daybreak.

"You can only come to morning through the shadows." - JRR Tolkien

Daybreak is my favorite time of day. The moment when night ends and light begins to slowly break through the darkness is evidence of God's gift of another new day. The miracle of light conquering darkness never gets old. 

"Light is sweet; how pleasant to see a new day dawning." -Proverbs 11:7

We can make plans. Some succeed; some fail. Some are worth trying again. We rest up and at daybreak we can try again. There is no need to fear the shadows. Take advantage of the opportunity to rest and restore. 

There is a unique peace at daybreak. As the new dawn's light forces shadow disseminate,  we find new hope and new energy. 

Today, I am grateful for daybreak.
