"Children of Light" 7-16-07

Good morning, Lord Jesus. Align my body in submission to my soul, and my soul in submission to my spirit, and my spirit in submission to Your Holy Spirit. ... "Jesus said to them, 'The light is with you for a little longer. Walk while you have the light, so that the darkness may not overtake you. If you walk in the darkness, you do not know where you are going. While you have the light, believe in the light, so that you may become children of light" (John 12:35-36). You are like the Sun in many ways -- steadfast and secure, the center of our world, full of fire, and sending forth Your light. Without You were are in darkness, with no growth, no life, and no hope. But we are not without You. And the light of Your glory touches our soul and warms our heart to awaken life. As in our experience of the Sun, we can arise to greet You in the coming of Your glory each day. We can walk in Your light as children of light, thankful for the glory of Your presence. Or in a spiritual sense, we can reject Your light, pull the covers of darkness over our heads, and lay there in a bed of self-pity and slumber. You give us the choice. Some will love darkness more than the light (John 3:19). But this day, by Your grace, I choose to walk in Your light because, by Your grace, I am a disciple and a son of Your light. In Jesus' name I pray, Amen. Be encouraged today!
