Walking in the Light

Light? What is light? What do we gain from light? This mornings devotion brought these questions to my mind.

Light helps us find our way. It may be a small flashlight to help see down a dark trail or a candle used to see when there's no electricity. Thankfully the sun gives us light so we don't have to always be in the dark. For someone trapped in a cave or a mine, the smallest ray of light showing through gives hope of being found.

Light from the sun gives us warmth. Even on a cold winter day the sun on our face warms us. There is a comforting feeling when pulling up to your home at night and seeing that amber color glowing in a window.

This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.
1 John 1: 5

Light represents the honesty, goodness, and purity of God. There are no shadows or dark sides to God. He is light!!

Just like the light, God helps us find our way. Through his love we find hope in a dark world.

Blessings to all,

Leigh Anne

  1. Your post made me think of my favorite childhood song, "This little light of mine." My prayer is that I will always let my light shine for Jesus.
