Phil Kosloski is spirituality writer at Aleteia.org and founder of Voyage Comics & Publishing . He brings us a line from J.R.R. Tolkien’s Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers: "The sun will soon rise above the shadow."

But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given us.” We also discussed these words from Mere Christianity by C.S.
