First Comes The Darkness, Then Comes The Light

It is written in the story of creation in The Book of Genesis in The Bible, "And there was evening, and there was morning - the first day." (Genesis 1, NIV). We see that first comes the darkness, then comes the light.

We learn from opposites, first we're given the evening (the darkness) so we can know the morning (the light).

We're at the beginning of a new creation, the quality of bestowal. We have to change from personal selfishness (seeking to benefit ourselves) to mutual bestowal (seeking to benefit others). We're going from darkness to light, from selfishness to bestowal.

In everything we do, we should seek to benefit others instead of ourselves.

Do not be afraid. God is with us.
