Psalms 112:4
Light arises in the darkness for the upright;
He is gracious and compassionate and righteous.
Those who are in darkness should remember that the Father of lights is still there. In Psalm 112:4 the Psalmist tells us that even in darkness the light dawns for those who walk according to the likeness of God. Finding light in the middle of a dark moment is a wonderful thing. Dark moments can come from many places. They can come when you are walking in the light and you simply desire more "light" (direction) from God. Even though you are actively engaged in doing something for Him you desire more. You crave for Him and His light. Dark moments, however, can also come from walking out of the light. God promises light for His children but when we disobey we deliberately walk into the light. We fail to realize that disobedience is an action that we take to leave the light and move into darkness. In both of these ends of the spectrum, however, God is there to rise light out of darkness. God wants us to follow hard after Him and promises light as we walk. That light might not seem available but it is certainly all around us and in God's character to provide it us. His Word lights our path (Psalm 119). His Son is the Light of the World (John 9). His Spirit was sent to guide us in all truth (John 16). So, if you want to have that light then walk according to light. God will provide it to you. He can make the darkest times full of His wonderful light.
