God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
And the light was good.

Overwhelmed would be understating my feelings about this morning's sunrise. I had been working since about 3:30 am and happened to glance out my office window at around 6:00 am as the sun began its ascent. Knowing that I did not have time to shoot the unfolding spectacle and still make my 7:30 am deadline, I chose to miss the deadline. I am a better person for it.

Low moisture and high dust concentration make the southern Arizona high desert sunrises and sunsets some of the most spectacular in the land. So much so that I have become somewhat jaded to their beauty. But this morning the bar was reset. As I stood in awe, the only thing I could think of was Genesis 3 and 4. If ever I needed those words, it would be at this time in my life. I was reminded that even in this season of loss, when often I don't feel His presence, it is there.

I remain His scribe.

Hopes first Light
