21st of August. 5.30 in the morn.

I could not get over what amazing event I have witnessed the night before.

Stars shined brightly in the evening sky while in a distant lightnings repeatedly struck the Earth.

I was amazed at the contrast of scenes. In a region, there is calmness and peace, while in another there is chaos and commotion. 

This is exactly how I picture the world now - there are so much wars, so much violence, seemingly endless killings, countless victims.. 

It's as if all hope is lost... 

Yet somewhere in a distant horizon stars refuse to stop shining... 

Even in death and hatred, they still shine... 

Even in the midst of trials and difficulties and troubles, the Lord continues to radiate His love to the righteous and sinners alike. 

Let's believe in the light we bring..inside of us...
