The people walking in darkness have seen a great light. On those living in a pitch-dark land, light has dawned. ~ Isaiah 9:2 (CEB)
You are the people that God has chosen -- a nation dedicated to serving him alone, a kingdom of priests representing him, his treasured people. You've been placed in this spot so that you can show God's goodness to others. He's called you away from all that is dark and into all that is light -- his amazing light. ~ 1 Peter 2:9 (ABP)
SUMMARY SENTENCE
God has called us to live in and reveal his light.
PRAYER
Lord, your light truly shines in my darkness, giving me direction, peace, and security. Our world feels like an avalanche of uncertainty and difficulty. I call upon you to help me replace negative thoughts with your sure and certain promises. Bring me into that broader, spiritual place where communion with you both lifts my spirit and touches other lives. Amen. (Daily Texts, Mount Carmel Ministries edition)
