there's a light upon the mountain.


There is an old hymn that comes to mind every time I see the morning sun  tip the mountain top. Its goes like this: 'There's a light upon the mountain and the day is at the spring when our eyes shall see the beauty and the glory of the King.'
There are so many morning walks that are wrapped in the words of that hymn, not just because I like the tune or because its a life long hymn that hasn't faded with time but because that light shouts out through the receding dark of the night that the Lord Jesus Christ is there, right there, visible and strong   The imagery is so applicable to our life as we reflect on the light of Christ that is there, right at the top, the end of any darkness we may experience in the tough times in our lives. The key to seeing the light through the darkness is to keep our eyes firmly fixed on Jesus, our Lord and Savior.
Grace and peace from the Lord Jesus Christ.
Anne, servant of the Lord.
