Illumination

Can anyone hide from me in a secret place? Am I not everywhere in all the heavens and earth?” says the Lord. ~ Jeremiah 23:24 (NLT)

So live as people of light! ~ Ephesians 5:8b (NLT)

Jesus, you said that you are the light of the world. In spite of what we might think at times, there are no secret sins. You see everything. Nothing is hidden from your illumined eyes. The good news is that your light not only reveals who we are, but it also guides us to where you want us to go -- and who you want us to become. So, starting right now, I am going to quit playing the hiding game. And I am going to follow your light. Make it really really bright, please. I need to be very aware of the light's presence. I want to live as a person illumined with your light! Amen.

Difficult Word
