Gathering in the Light

Cream-coloured meadowsweet flowers glowing in soft evening light against a blurred background of grasses

The meadowsweet catches the last of the evening light until each tiny flower seems almost to glow. What appeared ordinary in daylight becomes radiant for a few brief moments before dusk.

Light has a way of revealing what was always there. The flowers have not changed; only the way they are seen.

Perhaps faith teaches us something similar. The world is full of quiet gifts waiting for the right light—and for eyes that have learned to recognise them.
