Why Darkness?

Darkness is that thing which frustrates holiness, often to
propel holiness. The latter is quite illuminating; for it speaks
to an operation; whereby, one is want to ask for the person
which permits the function of this operation. Our thoughts
lead us to believe that love is absent of frustration, or at
least absent of gratuitous evil. We are a bit boxed in by
the unnecessary; wherefore, we take recourse to speak of
the unnecessary with reference to freewill. There are a
myriad of answers; but here the focus is on darkness—the
tolerance thereof; wherefore, we are with need to answer a
difficult question: Why is darkness permitted to assail
believers and non-believers? The non-believer may merely
suggest that he or she is having a bad day; where the

believer recognizes a pattern; or vice a versa. We believe that darkness has been granted permission to assail humanity; that which is found in the being of God has permission to harass persons for holiness; where an unbeliever may search his or her catalogue to render a more immediate locality for said affliction. So that which is found in the person of God, is permitted a range of freedom. Why is it not the case that God gives despite reciprocity? We believe that this is actually the case: I first loved you; moreover: Return to me, and I shall return to you. So God freely gives to receive through reciprocation, where we can never give to where a window of blessings shall not be opened up to pour into us more than we can ever give. We find that darkness is more a monitor; through which, we draw closer to the person of God, extracting secrets. According to a lineage of holy persons, we first understand self, and this leads us into a village of knowledge concerning God. If yin and yang hold truth, we see a need for balance; that is, What would a world of pure holiness look like? I imagine that the majority would seek out the path of Jesus, where there is a great deal more in the person of God to examine; of which, the crucifixion is the greatest knowledge. We find that that found in God is a necessary component for our existence. This is not an absolute statement; plus, riddled with holes; but upon belief, through experience, one is want to say that darkness exists for it exists in the Father, where unsaid affects are greater in us than in God. Let us speculate. I push a pupil to get the best out of him. I grade him harshly. I tell him to wax on and wax off for several hours a day. I challenge him with tasks that are a level higher than his natural capacities; and he meets the challenges. Something is hereby revealed in his person, a depth of insight and ability. It is similar with darkness: I permit it to assail a person, but not up to the point of death. In this assailment, the believer grows, discovering truths about self and God that could not be obtained otherwise; for we go the deepest into ourselves during our struggles; moreover, we experience this thing that God experiences necessarily. Where gratuitousness is concerned, I have little that would benefit such an inquiry; but I, here, argue that darkness is necessary, for it is a necessary element in God. Darkness is a form of balance, designed to draw believers into God, as well as to open the eyes of non-believers. I leave us with this: Our thoughts are not paralleled with the thoughts of God. This does not excuse what we may find as unnecessary, for I haven’t spoken necessarily of evil; instead, I am concerned with darkness; where evil entails darkness, but darkness does not necessarily entail evil.
