Do we trust Him? Will we be wiling to follow Him with our whole minds? We must believe He will help us, He will take us from here.
I long to obey your voice in everything today - You will help me where it least seems possible.
How does the world know we are His disciples? It's not by our knowledge, neither by many words, nor by going to church or smiling often. Even doing the right things in from of people, it's by our love for one another. Compassion for our fellow servant. are we willing to give of ourselves for one another? Are we willing to be poured out for Him and others? We only have one life, are we living it to the fullest?
Rather than telling someone something He wants us to have a life - radiant, reflecting HIS GLORY. Forgiveness rather than hate. Patience. He wants us not to mention what those in darkness do, but rather expose them as if we are a "flash light".
"For it is shameful even to speak of the things that they do in secret. But when anything is exposed by the light, it becomes visible, for anything that becomes visible is light. Therefore it says,
“Awake, O sleeper,
and arise from the dead,
and Christ will shine on you.”" Ephesians 5:10-14
"And this is the judgment: the light has come into the world, and people loved the darkness rather than the light because their works were evil." John 3:19
What do we find ourselves more attracted to, light or darkness? Are we hiding the emptiness in our lives? Or do we want them to be exposed, so He can take them away and fill us with His light?
