Sunlight On Our Path!
"If we say that we have fellowship with Him,
and walk in darkness, we lie and do not
practice the truth."
1 John 1: 6
Critics use the word dark to describe movies,
television
shows, comic books, songs, and forms of entertainment
that are troubling, evil, or depressive.
In the same way, we sometimes say about someone,
“He’s in a dark place right now.” That’s biblical terminology;
the apostle John frequently spoke of light and darkness.
The entire world—apart from God’s people—is in darkness,
groping for direction and hope. But the followers of Christ
have sunlight streaming onto their paths and have no need
for night vision goggles.
If there’s a dark spot somewhere in your heart or habits, confess
it to God and ask Him to bleach it from your system. When we get
to heaven, we’ll be sinless, spotless, and blameless in all our ways.
Until then, we work each day to stay on the pathway of light.
The Bible says, “But the path of the just is like the shining sun,
that shines ever brighter unto the perfect day” (Proverbs 4:18).
"If God had wanted us completely out of the world, He could
have taken us home to heaven at the time of our spiritual birth.
We are to shine as light in the world system’s darkness."
