We Need to Turn On the LIGHT! |
We need to turn on the LIGHT!
It was still dark outside, with barely enough light in the room to safely go from one door to another. She stood by her night table. As she reached down for a tissue, her hand upset the water glass on the table's edge. She had forgotten it was there, and had not seen it in the darkness.
Turning on the table lamp she thought, "I should have done this in the first place!" Quickly getting a cloth she wiped up the water. Thankful that the water was clean, and only needed to be absorbed into a clean cloth, she applied pressure to the wet bedding, then to the spots on the carpet.
"If only I had FIRST TURNED ON THE LIGHT, I wouldn't have made this mess!
But thank God that it wasn't fruit juice, coffee, tea or cocoa."
Another blessing of drinking clean water . . .
She smiled, shaking her head.
Then she remembered --
but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin. 1 John 1:7

And do not get drunk with wine, for that is dissipation, but be filled with the Spirit, Ephesians 5:18

But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. Galatians 5:16

Then Jesus again spoke to them, saying, " I am the Light of the world; he who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life."
John 8:12
(Describing the New Jerusalem)
The nations will walk by its light, and the kings of the earth will bring their glory into it.
Revelation 21:24
When we are walking in
the light of God's Word,
and seeking His Presence,
lies and deception are revealed
like shadows in a darkened room.
They must flee when exposed to
the love and truth of God
which exist only in
Jesus Christ.
