When I graduated from college
I shared an apartment with a friend of mine. We were two typical guys that
didn’t pay a lot of attention to what was going on around us. One day someone
came in to our place and ask why it was so dark. At first we weren’t sure what
they were talking about. It didn’t seem dark to us. Upon further inspection we
discovered half of all our light bulbs were burned out! We hadn’t noticed
because they didn’t go out at once, but one at a time. Our eyes had adjusted
over time, so we couldn’t tell the difference.
Sin is that way sometime. It can
creep up on us, and before we know it we have pushed God out of our lives. That
is why it is so important to keep the light of God shining on our lives. Jesus
is called the Light of the World, and he does bring light in to darkness. We
are also told, Your Word is a lamp to my feet, and a light for my path.
– Psalm119:105. Stay in the Word! It brings clarity to your world, and guides
you in truth.
Be wise today and always – keep
the lights on!
