                         Simple but True
Psalm 119:130
As Your words are taught, they give light;
   even the simple can understand them.  (NLT)

    Immediately after God’s words pierced the outer toughness of my hardened heart, the Light of His Truth began to brighten up the darkness that I had been trapped in all of my life, and it began to fill that empty space with love, understanding and blessed hope.  For it was out of my deepest darkness and the hopeless desperation of my soul that my depraved heart and soul received the Lord and He healed my wounds, took the burdens that I bore, and gave me some believable understanding about this life and what it all means—Truth that would comfort my weary soul and give me a life that was really worth living.  Anyone can read God’s Word, but if we fail to read it through the eyes of the Holy Spirit and let those God breathed words seep deep into our hearts, the light may flicker on for a while, but the power of darkness will raise its ugly head and blow it out cold. 
     When the Holy Spirit reveals the Truth to us, it penetrates our hardened hearts and softens it with His love and grace.  You cannot merely see or hear the Word of God in order to experience the transforming power that it offers.  We need the Light of Truth shining brightly on the pages of our lives, for without the Light, God's words will either fall on deaf ears or remain foreign and impossible to understand.  Mankind has proven over and over throughout the ages, that when we are disconnected from our Creator we are oblivious to the Truth, leaving us unprotected from the schemes of Satan that have deceived the world and killed many a soul.  Without the Word of God and His Everlasting Light, the world is a very lonely and hopeless place, my friend, for it was there from which I personally came.  Respond to the Word of Life and feel the power of His Truth and forgiveness.  Let the Light of God subdue the darkness, because it brings life to the fullest!

                                           A Whisper of Hope
I Am the True Source…for Light and Life, dear child.  I Am the Word of Life for any and all. I have given the world My Light so you could see through the darkness of this difficult life-journey.  My Light brings you hope and peace; the darkness brings you death and condemnation.

1 John 1:1-2
The One who existed from the beginning is the One we have heard and seen. 
We saw Him with our own eyes and touched Him with our own hands.  He is
Jesus Christ, the Word of Life.  This One who is life from God was shown to us,
and we have seen Him.  And now we testify and announce to you that He is the
One who is eternal life.  He was with the Father, and then He was shown to us.  (NLT)

               Your Word is a lamp for my feet and a 
                            light for my path.
                              (Psalm 119:105)
