Have you ever wondered why things of this world look so dark and are getting darker and uglier?
I don’t see anything dark or ugly in Jesus Christ, do you?. So step into the light, “as He is in the light.”
Here is a few lyrics of this song to give just a glimpse of the beautiful image of “MY God”: (Our God)
“You are unchanging love, Your heart sends hope from above. The Great Creator, Beautiful Savior, I’ve been redeemed. There is life now from Your victory, You are my God”
The very beginning verse of the bible starts with “In the beginning God created”…. This is the first verse that begins the story of creation. It is a living book of what was, what is, and what is to come.
This is my life story too: God created me. I was “formless and empty” and the “Spirit of God” brought Light into my life. “God saw that it was good, and He separated the light from the darkness” in me.
Because of Adam and Eves disobedience, I was born into sin. What is now, is I am free from sin, only because of the death of Jesus Christ my Savior. When this life is over, what is to come is I will be with Jesus in paradise because I have accepted this truth and nothing else.
The bible tells us that “men are without excuse,” Romans 1: 18-20. So if what is known about God, and it has been made plain to us by God, why do so many still walk in darkness? Without Jesus Christ, the world would NOT continue to exist. If it did, it would be a sort of hell. It only continues to exist for Jesus Christ, and to bring many more to a knowledge of their sin and need of redemption only through a Savior.
All of Who Jesus is, reaches the darkest parts of us. “Lifting the weight and erasing the scars” that have a hold on us. We will never be a perfect piece of art this side of heaven, but we are to seek after it. We are given a choice to set the Lord always before us and strive, by the guidance of the Holy Spirit, to be conformed to His image. So for now, my prayer is that Jesus will guide me to “walk in the light, as He is in the light” 1 John 1: 7.
