Peace Light
Psalm 56:13
For You have
delivered my soul from death. Have
You not
delivered my feet from falling, that I may
walk before
God in the Light of the living? (NKJ)
There is one thing that
human beings do quite well and it's living blindly in this dark world. We tend to stumble around in the darkness
searching for the easiest path to a victorious life. But sooner or later we discover that without
the proper lighting and guidance, all paths but one are a dead end. And after
dead end after dead end, many of us simply give up our search for the good and
happy life that ends so quickly. And when we give up it can get really dark and
awfully lonely. And the darker it gets,
the lonelier we are, and the lonelier we get the darker it becomes. And when we are dark and lonely, it is so
easy to simply lose our appetite for living and focus on the final dead
end. But this short life-journey doesn't
have to dead end in darkness and despair, for when we embrace the Light of God,
our paths get brighter and brighter, and we are never alone.
Most people will never find
their way out of the darkness because they don't know they are living in
darkness. Many people choose to remain
in the darkness because they love their sin too much. Some are afraid of the Light and fear it is
just another dead end. But many who are
exposed to the Light of God's amazing grace will walk down this new path and
discover a whole new meaning with a whole new purpose. And even though their lives don't always get
any easier, they know their Guide will get them safely through to the other
side. There will be plenty challenges on this path to Heaven and when the
darkness of the world is beating at the door of your heart to get back in, your
Savior is right there to keep that door shut so you can continue safely on your
way. And the moment you step out of this
life and into Heaven you will instantly know that it was well worth the
difficult journey.
A Whisper of Hope
Receive My Peace, dear child...and your deepest needs will be
fulfilled. I, the Prince of Peace, will
pour Myself into your neediness, for My abundance and your emptiness are a
perfect match. My Peace will live and
grow in you forever.
Hosea
14:9
Let those who
are wise understand these things. Let
those
who are
discerning listen carefully. The paths
of the LORD
are true and
right, and righteous people live by walking in
them. But sinners stumble and fall along the
way. (NLT)
Peace I leave you.
My peace I give you.
(John
14:27)
