Of Sunrises

This is my comfort in my affliction: for your word has revived me." Psalms 119:50 
In every places that I go, I always look forward to watch the sunrise and the sunset if i have the chance to. And here are some of my collections of the sunrises :

As I have asked  several people what sunrise means to them. They said:  It is the start of the morning, when the sun rise up from the horizon and brings light to the world, Others say, It is a wake up call for  them to start a new day. Yes it is indeed true. It is the most vivid reminder of a new beginning.

Subjectively for me, Sunrise means a metaphorical reminder of our life odyssey. It is a constant reminder of God's love for us. It refreshes and gives us a new hope to look forward. Amidst darkness, we are able to anticipate that a new day is coming. Light is inevitable after the darkness.

We can undeniably associate the sunrise to having hope, strength, happiness, joy, new beginning, peace, calm and tranquility. It always makes you think that God is always in the victory side against evil. 

2 Samuel 23:4 (New International Version )
he is like the light of morning at sunrise on a cloudless morning, like the brightness after rain that brings grass from the earth.'
