He will shine as surely as the sun

Summary: The promise of the sun rising after a dark night is a reminder of the coming of Christ, who brings justice and mercy. Those who fear the Lord and walk in His ways will experience a short night and everlasting joy. Christ will shine like the sun, bringing healing and clarity to those who wait for Him.
Fulfilled once in the first advent of our glorious Lord, and yet to be fully fulfilled at His second coming, this gracious word is also for daily use. Is the reader in the dark? Is the night sinking into a denser blackness? Even so, we must not despair: the sun will still rise. When the night is darkest, the aurora is closer.
The sun to be born is not of the common type. It is the sun: the Sun of Justice, and each of its rays is holiness. He who comes to rejoice us, comes in the way of justice as well as mercy, and will not violate any law even to save us. Jesus manifests both God's holiness and His love. Our liberation, when it comes, will be safe because it is fair.
A point of inquiry is to be: "Do we fear the name of the Lord? Do we revere the living God, and walk in His ways?" Then for us the night will be short; and when morning comes, all sickness and affliction of our soul will be over forever and ever. Light, warmth, joy, and clarity of vision will come, and healing from all sickness and pain will follow afterward.
Has Christ risen in us? Let's sit in the sun Has He hidden His face? Let's wait for His departure. He will shine as surely as the sun.
