Light Metaphors in Meeting

Yesterday in Meeting for Worship someone spoke about how although we talk often in Meeting about love and light, so many of us close our eyes during worship. She said she thinks of it like an x-ray - our eyes closed, the light shows us the fractures, so that we might heal them. Another F/friend then shared a reminder that the shadows remind us that there is light. This idea reminds me of the Martin Luther King quote that “Only in the darkness can you see the stars.” What beautiful sentiments to reflect on this week!
