Yours truly up on the
ladder with my camera in my hands, ready to photograph the rocks I painted; I
hear a big crack of thunder and the lights go out.
The warehouse has enough natural
light for me to see to get off the ladder and go over to check the breakers,
but not enough light to get an accurate picture of the rocks to send my boss.
It reminded me of how
Jesus is the light of the world; without Him we’ll never get an accurate
picture of anything that’s going on, just smoke and mirrors. “Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying,
I am the light of the world: he that followeth [is following] me shall not walk
in darkness, but shall have the light of life” (John 8:12). Light
dispels darkness, “For thou art my lamp, O Lord:
and the Lord will lighten my
darkness” (2 Sam 22:29). What a great promise. We can repeat this scripture to
ourselves until we believe it and expect the Lord to shed light on any dark
areas in our lives.
The lights in the warehouse came back on slowly.
Sometimes it’s that way with things for us too—we want to understand; we need
more light from Jesus on the subject; we pray about it and the truth comes to
us slowly, a little at a time. At other times Jesus illuminates our
circumstances like a flood light and everything becomes clear.
Lord bring on the light in our relationships,
our finances, our ability to follow You, our understanding of current events and
end time events, our part in politics and community, and our many small or big choices
in everyday life.
Love, Carolyn
