On the Day of Grace
Dawn's light scatters depression
Brings joy to sad hearts

The "Blogging Circle of Friends "  prompt for DAY 2088
“When you get to the end of all the light you know and it's time to step into the darkness of the unknown, faith is knowing that one of two things shall happen: either you will be given something solid to stand on, or you will be taught how to fly.” ― Edward Teller What do you think about this quote?

Faith and Light

Faith sees the light
of moon and stars,
even when thunderclouds
cover the sky.

Faith sees the light
of dawn
even in the darkness
of midnight.

Faith is taking action,
when the way is blocked
or the road is under construction.

Faith gives our souls wings,
and our feet
a firm foundation.

Mary Oliver says, “You can have the other words-chance, luck, coincidence, serendipity. I'll take grace. I don't know what it is exactly, but I'll take it.” What is grace to you?

Grace

Grace is a divine attribute, which our souls can reflect.
Grace, Fiḍál, is the fourth day of the Baha'i week, which begins on Saturday and ends on Friday.
"Meditation on Grace" 
Grace is getting up after you have failed and asking God for forgiveness.
Grace is a token of the love of God.
