2 Corinthians 5:16-19 ESV
From now on, therefore, we regard no one according to the flesh. Even though we once regarded Christ according to the flesh, we regard him thus no longer. Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation. The old has passed away; behold, the new has come. All this is from God, who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us the ministry of reconciliation; that is, in Christ God was reconciling the world to himself, not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us the message of reconciliation.
The movement of creation is from darkness to light. The earth begins in the darkness. The day begins with the evening darkness and ends with the light of day.
This might be considered as a meaning for "the day of the Lord", the movement from night to the light of the Lord.
May that light ever shine on us.
