Ms. Leslie’s Letter to Parents

Two days ago while lying next to my husband, wanting desperately to fall asleep, I rolled over and whispered, “Frank, I’m in a dark place and I can’t get out of it. I feel overwhelmingly inadequate, confused, like a total failure.”  Gentle words and a tender pat tried to reassure me. 

But all I could see was darkness.  

I was desperate.  “Frank, will you pray for me?  Please.”  In a half-asleep daze, my precious Frank rose to the occasion and prayed.  The darkness refused to disperse.  But, somehow, touching the one who could see The Light, I fell asleep.

Jesus tells us, “I am the Light of the World.” John 8:12, 9:5.  We are all people who walk in darkness at different times and in different ways.  Children included. Together, we stand with one common need: to see The Light in the presence of darkness.

So, the questions we might ask ourselves are these: 

How do I  “touch” someone when I can’t see The Light?

How do I stay “touchable” for my children when they see dark?

We give great thanks to You, Lord God, for being The Light that pierces the darkness.
