Light > darkness // 01-10-21

“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.” John‬ ‭1:5‬ ‭NLT‬‬

Darkness and light are not equal opponents, light always wins when it is switched on! We can get so concerned and worried about the darkness, about how bad everything is and how confusing life is, but our real concern should be about not being connected to the power source. The answer to dispersing darkness is always to shine light, and that only happens in relationship with God, connected to Him. So when I worship it gets lighter, when I turn to God with thanksgiving it gets lighter, when I pray it gets lighter, when I read His Word, it gets lighter, when I spend time with my family of faith, it gets lighter, when I obey God, it gets lighter, when I do His will it gets lighter, when I speak the name of Jesus, it gets lighter, when I help those in trouble it gets lighter! Lord, keep me close and connected in I pray, that my life will shine brighter dispelling the darkness around me. Amen 💡☀️🙏🏼
