Embrace the Darkness

Darkness is defined as the partial
or total absence of light.


Darkness can be the ever-present feeling
of being sad and without hope


So why does God allow it?


Perceptions of darkness have always been negative. So how can one perceive that embracing the darkness would be positive? H.G. Franklin is a prime example of using this approach in his life. Franklin gives a synopsis of a time of darkness during his life. He explains how he felt that God should have delivered him from this darkness - after all, he had been faithful, and he had a relationship with God. Why would God allow bad times, sad times, and all things negative (DARKNESS) to invade your life? H.G. Franklin gives personal testimony of how he found freedom through his embrace. He uses real-life examples and parallels his "darkness" to those who experienced darkness in the Bible, such as Joseph and Job.

This book is encouraging and easy to read. However, it will challenge your present definition and perception of darkness. The author gives a refreshing account of how God took him through this process. Continue to read and allow this book to help you see the light that can be found in darkness.
