Ever get up in the middle of the night for one reason or another and, trying to be conscientious to others, not turn on the lights? Many times, this scenario plays out well and everything goes exactly according to plant. HOWEVER, occasionally, you walk into a wall, a door, or snag your pinkie toe on a door jamb or a bed corner. When that happens, all conscientiousness towards others ceases.
We hop around and try to muffle screams and stifle tears. We do everything we can to try not to let others know we have made a mistake but, eventually, the inner weakness defeats the outer strength and we have to let it out. All of this could have been avoided with just a little light.
Today's word is 1 John 1:7, NIV, which reads, "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, purifies us from all sin."
Just as a little light can prevent pinkie toe injuries and the awakening and offending of our loved ones, walking in the light of our SAVIOR will keep us from offending one another. Yeah, we will still have those moments when we get on each others last nerve but we'll see that we are all family, and that is what families do. So, walking in the Light will keep us from faltering and floundering.
Walking with JESUS will also purify us from all sin. GOD sent His Son, JESUS, to be the sacrifice to cover all our sins. Once we accept His gift, our sins are gone and His blood purifies us. WOW!
Look, walk in the Light! You'll not only save your pinkie toe, you'll save your soul!
Be Blessed,
