As a resident of Long Island New York, I experienced the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. Fortunately, family and friends weren't gravely affected by this storm but most to all I knew were out of power for a few days.
Here is what God showed me during these times.
1) No one and absolutely no one I knew wanted to sit in darkness, day in and day out.
2) When the power went out, many other things went with it. The use of your fridge and/or stove (food supply), the inability to see (light) and most importantly for New Yorkers entering the Winter season the use of their Heat.
Here is the spiritual side of this, when you are in darkness you lack many things. You function at a very minimal level.
In the Word of God, it likens God as Light because God is Light and there is absolutely no darkness in Him.
There are many people, without knowledge of this, who are walking, sitting or living in darkness. They have no clue that they are missing Life, Food (Spiritual food), the ability to properly see and Heat (Passionate Love from the Father).
Like I said, in the aftermath of Sandy nobody I knew enjoyed being in the dark and I think that as we actively pursued and hoped for LIPA (Long Island Power Administration) to turn back on the power. We should also actively pursue, call on, and wait and hope for God to turn back on the power in us, through us and for others. :)
