John 8:12
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

Once we have accepted Christ as our Savior, we have no excuse to walk in sin. He is our light and He will shine His light on our paths so we can choose the way to go.

I have often wondered how people handle the “darkness” when they live in areas far north where they have times of the year where it is dark 24 hours a day! I can remember days in the winter time in Northern Michigan when it was overcast day after day until you could tell people were a bit down, grumpy or depressed. I owned a salon for hair, nails and tanning and it was a very busy time of year because people felt the need for the “light”. Have you ever gone outside on a sunny day and just thoroughly enjoyed the sun shining on your face? What a great feeling! Life is like that too and we need our daily dose of His light shining on our faces and giving us the light for the direction we need to go! You don’t have to look for His light, all you have to do is ask!

1 John 1: 5-10 tells us, “This is the message we have heard from Him and proclaim to you, that God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all. If we say we have fellowship with Him while we walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth. But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. If we say we have no sin, we deceive ourselves, and the truth is not in us. If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness. If we say we have not sinned, we make Him a liar, and His word is not in us.” We are called to walk in His light and to live lives that reflect Him in order to draw others to His truth! It is His light and only His light in your life that will bring about the change you so desperately desire. You cannot change the people around you but His love and light can!

I would like to encourage you today, no matter where you are, no matter what you may have done in the past or what you may be facing to trust Him! Seek Him with your whole heart, don’t hold anything back and ask Him right here, right now to shine His light on your situation! He has a plan! How bad do you want His best for your life? Do you want it bad enough to follow Him without reservation, holding nothing from Him, but giving every part of you and your situation to Him! Your deliverance, your victory, your answers will all be found in His light! He loves you! Trust Him and you will find that the best is yet to come!
