God is light, and there is no darkness in him at all (1 John 1:5; NLT).
Clouds and thick darkness surround him (Psalm 97:2; NIV).
Moses approached the thick darkness where God was (Exodus 20:21; NLY).
***********************************
Lord,
You are light,
And in you there is no darkness
At all.
Yet you surround yourself
With deepest darkness,
Where we can meet you safely
Every day.
