God called the light “day,” and the darkness He called “night.” So there was evening and there was morning—one day. — Genesis 1:5
The concept never really hit me until it did in 2009. With Matisyahu having an album called “Light”, I as a fan, bought it. I really started thinking about it. It all makes sense. Matisyahu, not really intended to be Messianic, resonated with me, “I will be light”.
In our whole lives we are trying to move from being lost, to be found. From a place unknown, to a place you call home. Scripture is the story of a people going from darkness to light. The whole world has it wrong. We think of a day, starting at 12:00am and ending at 11:59pm, but that was not God’s intention.
We are to spend every day starting off dark, to a day of light. So every day we get a little closer, a little more aware. It should be a daily search for more knowledge and more understanding.
