Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning – Psalm 30:5
If you are given a choice, would you choose to weep or would you choose joy? You may think this question to be strange as it seems quite obvious that everyone would choose joy. But consider what the bible tells us at the beginning of the creation story. It tells us that in the beginning, God spoke light into existence. He called the light day and the darkness night. A word study of light and darkness reveals that light refers to knowledge whereas darkness refers to ignorance. When this illumination is applied to the verse above, we see that weeping occurs where ignorance is present, whereas joy comes where knowledge is present. Jesus is the light of the world! Therefore, wherever Jesus is present, there is light, and wherever there is light, there is joy! That’s why we sing in the Christmas season: joy to the world, the Lord is come. To experience joy requires that you choose to no longer live in ignorance of your own thinking but to live in the light of the knowledge that comes from the Holy One. It requires surrendering your thoughts in favor of His thoughts and allowing the Spirit of God to lead and guide you. that you. The choice is yours: Weeping or joy. Choose wisely.

I never knew that light means knowledge and darkness, ignorance. With those definitions, I can see how we can unknowingly choose weeping when we choose ignorance.
We have been taught that ignorance means bliss. I’m not sure that’s true and if it is, it’s short lived. We end up paying much later for the things we refuse to gain knowledge of in order to choose wisely.
May we live in the light of the knowledge of and from the Holy One and find delight in knowing Him and learning from Him. Amen.
