Darkness

May 15th – 1 John 1:7

1 John 1:7

There’s nothing better than standing in the light of the sun, and feeling its warmth upon our skin. But beyond that, the sun’s power also produces valuable Vitamin D that our bodies need to function. As Christians there’s nothing better than standing in the light of the Lord and feeling the warmth of His love and grace. And when we walk in obedience to God, we experience the joy of fellowship. A fellowship with Him and fellow believers that nourishes our soul. But if we choose to step outside of the light, that fellowship with our Father will be interrupted. Which is why we need the power of God. For He keeps us from the enticements of sin. And also from foolishly stepping back into the darkness from which we have been rescued.

December 15th – John 12:46

John 12:46

Living in the country away from the street and city lights, when the sun sets, the darkness envelops everything. Without the light, it’s impossible to find the way. That’s how it is before we receive Jesus as our Savior. Separated from God, we live in the darkness of sin, doubt, fear, death, and pain. But when we invite Christ into our hearts, the veil of darkness is lifted forever. Not only do we become reconciled again to our Father in heaven and receive the light of His peace, love, grace, and mercy, we also become reflections of that Light to a darkened world.
