Be The Light

"Alone in the dark" can be a terrible place to be, if we let it. And sometimes, we DO let it. But we shouldn't take up permanent residence. There is hope.

Our minds tend to wander all over the place. That can be bad, but it can also be good. Most of these stories come from early morning wanderings.

Staying in the dark though can be exceedingly bad. That's where Satan lives. He makes his living off of preying on people at their weakest moments.

"Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour." - 1 Peter 5:8

Have a relationship with Jesus can light up your day, even when you are sitting in the dark. He always seems to provide a thought or use someone to bring a little light into our darkness.

Just this morning I found myself sitting alone in the dark. I had just finished my morning scripture reading when the room lit up. No, it wasn't an angel of the Lord bringing glad tidings. Or maybe it was. It was an in-coming text from a friend.

“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” - John 8:12

We all need light in our lives to survive. We're like plants that way. But unlike plants however, we can receive light by giving light to others. Only God could arrange something like that.

Shine your light into someone else's life. By doing just that one simple thing you not onnly with make THEIR life brighter, but you will light up YOUR life as well.

Be The Light!

“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another." - John 13:34
