I believe in the sun even when it is not shining!

Posted on July 19, 2025July 19, 2025 by Norm

The author of this poem un unknown. It was written during WW2, found on the wall of a cellar by a Jew in the Cologne concentration camp.

“I believe in the sun
even when it is not shining
And I believe in love,
even when there’s no one there.
And I believe in God,
even when He is silent.
I believe through any trial,
there is always a way
But sometimes in this suffering
and hopeless despair
My heart cries for shelter,
to know someone’s there
But a voice rises within me, saying hold on
my child, I’ll give you strength,
I’ll give you hope. Just stay a little while.
I believe in the sun
even when it is not shining
And I believe in love
even when there’s no one there
But I believe in God
even when he is silent
I believe through any trial
there is always a way.
May there someday be sunshine
May there someday be happiness
May there someday be love
May there someday be peace….”

think about it!

God proved His love on the Cross. When Christ hung, and bled, and died, it was God saying to the world, “I love you.

— Billy Graham
