Walking in the Light

Have you ever walked in darkness?

Maybe your power went out during a storm, or you were stranded on the road with car trouble. Walking in darkness can be scary, and it can be dangerous. Having a light makes everything better, and the same is true in our spiritual journeys.

How we find that light in the midst of darkness is actually pretty straightforward: Psalm 119 says that God's Word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. In other words, the Bible itself is a light—that points to THE Light. It's our guide. It helps us make decisions to follow Christ and to not walk in darkness.

Just as Jesus is the light of the world, we are called to reflect His light into the world. When we intentionally choose to walk in His light, we embrace truth, righteousness, and love. 

When my kids were in grade school, I worked 2 jobs. I would come home and hug them and run out the door again. Being a single mom, I was trying to make it work! Looking back I realize how blessed I was. They did their chores, did homework and left on table for me to look at, and put themselves in bed. The Lord graced me and them to thrive in that season.

As they are older, I get nervous because bad decisions carry adult consequences that I can’t fix! I had a sweet friend remind me - the same God that got you all through those times is the same God that will guide them now.

Boy is she right! God does not change, and his faithfulness is unwavering and not dependent on us! I can sit and trust He is there- through every season!
