A Light For "THE" Way

I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness. And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world. He who rejects Me, and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day. 

- John 12:46-48, NKJV

Simple message for today - abide in Christ's light and steer clear of the world's darkness. Simple indeed, yet seemingly so hard given life's "happenings." Know that for the Christian this very light has already served as a beacon of hope, guiding and directing all who dare to call upon and believe in the name of Jesus to the promise of a better "today." Likewise, this same light now resides in each and every single person whose hope, trust, faith, and love are in Him. As a result, the Christian's walk isn't in the dark (the pride of life, lust of flesh, lust of the eye); rather, in the light (love, peace, joy, patience, self-control), serving as the manifested glory of God's love and a ray of His hope in the midst of a dark world. It is of the utmost importance that now more than ever, every single person bearing the name of Christ (Christian) reflect the light, not stifle/hide it knowing that every action has a life in the balance - “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven (Matthew 5:14-16, ESV). Today abide in the light, steer clear of the world's darkness...then watch how "you" become a light for "THE" way to those who abide in darkness. 

BE BLESSED!
