Light in the Darkness

During the Advent and Christmas seasons I have been reflecting on the images of light and darkness. There are many people and places in our world longing for the Light of the World to be born in them. In recent weeks the news has been filled with reports of war, possible genocide, terrorist attacks, poverty, climate crisis, racism, and systemic injustice. When my focus remains on these things it is easy to be overwhelmed with feelings of powerlessness and to feel encased by the darkness.

I had graduated with a broadcasting degree just two years prior so naturally it felt like I didn't know what I was doing. Instead of speaking in front of a microphone, it was my job to speak up for adults with various types of mental illnesses.
