In the Light

Clarity is a beautiful word. Light brings things in to focus. Jesus is the Light of the world and we are to walk in it. Hank Williams sang, I saw the light I saw the light, No more darkness no more night. Now I'm so happy no sorrow in sight. Praise the Lord I saw the light.

Have you found His joy and light in your life? I think we settle for partial or dimmed light when it really is God's desire that we walk in the fullness of His glory. He does not want us stumbling around with foggy minds, in depression, with weak and unhealthy bodies. Healthy Living magazine recently ran an article on seven things sunlight can do for you.


Sunlight may help prevent cancer.



Sunlight is beneficial for Alzheimer’s patients.

Sunlight may lower risk for multiple sclerosis.
Sunlight helps heal psoriasis..
Sunlight can ease mild depression.
Sunlight contributes to bone health in older adults.
Sunlight can improve sleep quality.

If that wasn't enough to convince you of the benefits of sunlight look at what the Bible says in 1 John 1:5-7; This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.  If we claim to have fellowship with him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth.  But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.


This is God's grace in action - freeing us from sin and bringing us out from bondage and darkness. His grace is more than enough to not only forgive you but to restore your mind, heart, and body. People still miss it.  In him (Jesus) was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.- John 1:4 Don't miss God's light and apply it to all aspects to your life. He desires only the best for you.


For I will restore health to you, and your wounds I will heal, says the Lord,.Jeremiah 30:17 RSV
