For anyone out there who doesn’t know where you’re going,
anyone groping in the dark,
Here’s what: Trust in GOD.
Lean on your God!
1 JOHN 2:8 (CEV)
But it really is a new commandment, and you know its true meaning, just as Christ does. You can see the darkness fading away and the true light already shining.

Why is light such a powerful metaphor for our experience with Christ?
PRAYER
Thank you, Lord, for being the true light of my life. You redeem the world and bring me your gracious light. When I confess the darkness of sin in my heart, forgive me. Shine on me so I can trust you even when darkness looms on the horizon. Make me a beacon of light to someone today. Amen. (Daily Texts, Ground Up Grace edition)
Our Father in Heaven,
we hold your name in the highest regard.
Please come and establish your reign here on earth
so that everything that happens here will align
with what is happening in heaven.
and we’ll forgive those who have wronged us.
Shield us from the trials and temptations that come our way.
Lastly, we pray that you will protect us from all forms of evil. Amen.
