When I think of walking in the light I often find myself referring back to a song learned in my early childhood called "This Little Light of Mine I'm Gone Let it Shine"... Yeah you know the words! However, I do feel that as we grow in the spirit our light should grow from little to big. Therefore, when I was a babe in Christ the song was definitely fitting but now I say: this light of mine... I am no where near saying this big light of mine as of yet, but know I am working on my walk with the aim to have the biggest light shining on the inside and out.
Be encouraged, no matter what state you are in at this point in your life let your light shine. Jesus died on the cross to set us free. So for us to dodge and dim our lights it would be disproving to God's Word in which we're ordained. So be noble, praiseworthy & exuberant in excellence.
Amen
Children of Light
In Matthew 7:14 Jesus said you are the light of the world. Do not hide your light under a bushel by ignoring a friend or brother in need when it's in your power to help him, or speaking harshly when a kind word would turn away wrath. Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble, and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and glorify your Father Who is in heaven (Matt 5:16 AMP).
PRAYER
Father, thank you for the Word who became flesh and dwelt among us. In Him was life and the Life was the Light of men. We are children of the Light, walking in Light and we have fellowship with one another, as the blood of Jesus purges all our sin. When we confess our sins, you are just to forgive us and to cleanse us from all wrongdoing. In Christ Jesus, through the shedding of His blood, we are redeemed. Amen.
