"We often only see the light of Christ because it is contrasted against the shadows in our lives."

I've been percolating a thought around today, on how we most often see the power of Christ in our lives when we go through times of stress, of grief, of trials. Or when we see the darkness of the world all around...what people do to one another, or how they neglect one another. Against the shadows of storms in our lives, and the dark cold that grows in parts of society, the light of Christ shows ever brighter.

The thought that started this pondering was:

"We often only see the light of Christ because it is contrasted against the shadows in our lives."
