We often misinterpret times of darkness, assuming weve failed and God has abandoned us. In God in the Dark, Susan Pitchford suggests that darkness is not a place of abandonment but a place of intimacy and a special call to a deeper relationship with the God who desires us. Once we understand this, we will not have to fear the dark, and when the night closes in around us, we can experience it as an embrace.
