The Light Shines in the Darkness


   One of the things Sally and I did on our “stay-cation” after Christmas was to visit the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA).

   In one of the “exhibits” we were led into a room where we put booties on our feet.  We then ascended a flight of stairs, into a completely white environment which soon began to slowly change colors. 

   An orange-ish band of light around the entryway to the room framed a back wall that changed colors as well.

   When we were about half-way through our time there, we were told that that wall behind the entryway was in fact gray, that our minds were only “seeing” it in color.

   Epiphany is about the true light that is Jesus shining in the darkness.  (John 1:1-9)

   Epiphany reminds us that seeing is not believing.  Believing is a way of seeing.
