" For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light." Ephesians 5:8 In Matthew's Gospel Jesus tells us that we are "the light of the world". We are to be walking in light. Ephesians 4:30-32 gives insight to what may cause us to walk in darkness rather than light. Importantly, Scripture reveals the remedy for this condition. "Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, by whom you are sealed unto the day of redemption. Let all bitterness, and wrath, and anger, and clamor, and evil speaking, be put away from you, with all malice; and be you kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God, for Christ's sake has forgiven you." If you find yourself venturing out into spiritually dark areas where you can readily plunge downward, think prayerfully and not pridefully about the steps you are taking. It takes "Light", the Holy Spirit, for you to "see". The Spirit reveals the truths of God. When your eyes are open to the Spirit... your whole life is light. "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:16 Let us bask in the "Sonshine" of His love, as we walk with Jesus, the "Light of the World".
