My Light Is Your Light

My light is in your hand. Your light is in my hand.
When you take care of my light, I take care of yours.
-Midrash
G‑d speaks to the soul of a Jew:
You have light. Powerful light. It is hidden within you.
I have light. Infinite light. It is hidden in my Torah.
So let us make a deal.
You will make the light of my Torah your light. Then the light of your soul will become My light. And then there will be no place left in the world for anything but light.
