Although we were driving, although the windshield was really dirty, although I am no photographer … I just had to get a shot of the sun in the distance.
Even with the vast array of filters at my hand (literally) it still does not do justice for what my eyes saw.
There is something about sunrises, and sunsets, and rays of light that regularly makes me pull out my phone to try to get the image recorded forever.
According to Maclaren’s Expositions, “in all languages, light is the natural symbol for three things: knowledge, joy, purity. To ‘walk in the light’ then, is, speaking generally, to have purity, righteousness, goodness, as the very element and atmosphere in which our progressive and changeful life is carried on.
1 John 1:5 tells us:
“God is light; in him there is no darkness at all”
If light is the symbol for knowledge, joy and purity, we could then extrapolate that God, being light, is the very source of knowledge, joy and purity.
Kinda makes our magnetism for light make sense. It draws us to it, as Christ draws us to him, and through him we experience true knowledge, joy and purity.
Even our Wonder dog is drawn to the light.
