My drive home every evening takes me around a bay – and on a clear, sunny day it’s breathtaking.
Today was one such day. The sky was littered with fluffy white clouds and the sun was present in their midst. As I ogled at their existence, I noticed the effect of the sun on the surrounding clouds.
And it was a pretty ground breaking observation…
WHAT I NOTICED
…was that the closer the clouds were to the sun, the more brilliant they appeared, while those that were found at a distance, took on a darker, less white, more grey appearance.
OUTSTANDING!!!
… or not
So I realize that’s fairly obvious. BUT it made me think about the other Son we know.
And how… the closer we are to Him, the brighter we shine.
Which made me think – that making a sincere effort to go pray in front of the Blessed Sacrament is important.
Hence – worth the effort.
