David Bronnert, who was quoted in CQOD at the beginning of the month, has kindly sent me the following meditation taken from the church magazine of St. John's Church, Southall, in London, where he serves as vicar, living out, under God, the previous quotation he wrote thirty years ago. I am grateful to brother David for sending me this timely teaching so that I could present it to you. The light shines in the darkness   Candles are always popular for giving a warm romantic glow and this time of year they are to be seen on many different occasions. Of course a candle is easy to blow out! So much so that its flickering light was chosen by Shakespeare as a picture of the transitory nature of life. Out out brief candle!   Darkness is a reminder of evil, for it is in the darkness that people get lost, stumble and fall. It is in the darkness that power is misused, corruption reigns and evil is done. It is easy to imagine that in the end evil will triumph and the light will disappear. Situations change. Familiar landmarks -- like this magazine! -- disappear. There is the unrelenting pressure of a vanity fair society. The candle burns down and gives a thin wisp of smoke before going out.   But there are also the special party candles that keep bursting back into life. They are a much better picture of the light of the gospel! For though they have been numerous attempts down the centuries to extinguish the light, it has kept on bursting back into flame.   The light of Christ keeps on shining. New ways of sharing the good news come along. New believers are attracted to his light. Sleepy Christians are re-awakened. Fresh discoveries give even more confidence in the truth of the Bible.   The light keeps on shining in the darkness. It is a statement and a promise at the same time. It is isn't that once the light shone, but rather, that in the present it shines, and it will do so in the future as well. For the light comes from the one who is, as well as who was, and is also the one who is to come.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/6316</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Beware lest in your anxiety to avoid war you obtain a master. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47544]]></link><description><![CDATA[Beware lest in your anxiety to avoid war you obtain a master.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/47544</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[Three may keep a secret if two of them are dead. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54977]]></link><description><![CDATA[Three may keep a secret if two of them are dead.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/54977</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[For every disciplined effort there is a multiple reward. ]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12399]]></link><description><![CDATA[For every disciplined effort there is a multiple reward.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/12399</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[O Cicero, I have seen tempests when the scolding winds  Have rived the knotty oaks, and I have seen ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57905]]></link><description><![CDATA[O Cicero, I have seen tempests when the scolding winds  Have rived the knotty oaks, and I have seen   Th' ambitious ocean swell and rage and foam    To be exalted with the threat'ning clouds;     But never till to-night, never till now,      Did I go through a tempest dropping fire.]]></description><guid>http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/57905</guid></item><item><title><![CDATA[I knew all along this team could be at the top and remain at the top, because we definitely have ...]]></title><link><![CDATA[http://www.maxioms.com/maxiom/29628]]></link><description><![CDATA[I knew all along this team could be at the top and remain at the top, because we definitely have the personnel.
