Light After Darkness

LIGHT AFTER DARKNESS
Morning follows night. That which was concealed
in darkness is revealed in the light of day. This is a
sign of what is to come.
The light of eternity will tear the veils which have
concealed the realities of human existence in the
world. Everyone will appear in his true light. It will
become clear who among us was masquerading as an
ideal human being, while acting solely on baser
animal instincts. It will become clear who was only
paying lip service to righteousness. It will become
clear who was falsely claiming to be a servant of God.
The truth about many others will also be revealed on
that day. People will realize the true importance of
those whom they used to rate poorly. Those who
were never honoured in world gatherings will find
honour among the angels. Those who were rejected
by men will be accepted by God. Those who were
wrongly accused of impiety in the world will be
hailed for their piety in the presence of the Almighty.
