The winter rains have arrived, and we are all hunkering down for the next 8 months of dark, grey, cold, and rain. God created us to need the sunlight. In order for us to be healthy and thrive (physically, mentally, & emotionally) we need a certain amount of sunlight.
The same thing is true spiritually. God created us in His image. God created us to be in relationship with Him. “God is LIGHT; in Him there is no darkness at all.” -1 John 1:5 We were made to be in close relationship with the God of LIGHT.
But we live in a very dark world. The darkness weighs heavy on our souls. We need God’s LIGHT … we need LIGHT therapy … every day!
* God’s Word is LIGHT! “Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a LIGHT for my path.” -Psalm 119:105
* Jesus is LIGHT! Jesus said: “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
“The LIGHT shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it.” -John 1:5
“The LORD is my LIGHT and my salvation -whom shall I fear?” -Psalm 27:1
Our world is a very dark place. We need LIGHT … LIGHT therapy of God’s Word every day! Get into God’s Word … every day! And in so doing, you in turn, will shine the LIGHT.
“You are the LIGHT of the world. … Let your LIGHT shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” -Matthew 5:14a, 16
