LIGHT

ISAIAH 60:20 (NLT)
Your sun will never set;
     your moon will not go down.
For the LORD will be your everlasting light.


JOHN 12:46 (NLT)
I have come as a light to shine in this dark world, so that all who put their trust in me will no longer remain in the dark.

SUMMARY SENTENCE
Live in the light which God has established through Christ Jesus.

PRAYER
Gracious God, I'm so thankful for the light that you have brought into my life. The world has chosen to live in darkness -- demonizing those with whom they disagree, using power to force their agendas on those with less, fighting to prove they are right... The list goes on and on. And sometimes I even get sucked into their way of thinking and living. Forgive me and restore the brightness of your light in my life so that I might walk unafraid of the darkness. Amen.
