constant

In September my Dad was showing me pictures from their vacation.
Each day he took a picture of the sunrise and during the slide show he said:

And the sun rose on that day too.


Maybe it's where my heart and mind has been lately
but him saying that startled me.

I literally wanted to dissolve then and there.
I have been through the darkest of times lately
and to notice something so simple and so simply taking for granted
really encouraged me.

A constant.

Every good and perfect gift is from above,
coming down from the Father of lights
with whom there is variation or shadow due to change.
James 1:17

Obviously my Dad has no idea how dramatically that statement affected me.
