At any moment, 50% of the earth is lighted by the direct rays of the sun,
and the other 50% of the earth is not.
Over the course of a year, every point on earth is lighted by the direct rays
of the sun for exactly 50% of the time, and not lighted by the direct rays of
the sun for the other 50% of the time.
There is no place on earth that is always lighted by the direct rays of the sun, and
there is no place on earth that is never lighted by the direct rays of the sun.

Why are the lighter colored halves of the moon and earth always facing the sun?
The lighter colored halves of the moon and earth are always facing the sun because of their positions in relation to the sun.

This creates the phases of the moon and day/night cycle on earth.
