Light and Dark

SO I went out to dinner with Kate's familly last night, and it was amazing. We ate at a great restaurant and had great food.
While we were eating I looked out the window and saw what Kate and I have termed "the god effect" again. Light shines down from above striking the tops of the clouds where it is reflected back up into the sky to be illuminated against other clouds that are higher up. I saw streaks and beams of brilliant light arching across the sky, and I think that it is quite possibly the closest I have ever come to seeing god...or at least that's what I think it would look like.
Then, a bit later I looked up to see what was possibly one of the most evil-looking thing's I've ever seen.
The god effect was gone, and they sky had turned dark. In one corner of sky the clouds were dissolving down into the clouds below them, trickling down in a fine, black, hazy mist, and it looked...like the clouds were bleeding. I've never seen anything like it before, but it was really creepy.
