Envision the World in Total Darkness

For just a moment I would like to cause you to ponder. What would it feel like to be in total darkness? So dark that you could not see your hand 3 inches in front of your face. I'm talking about pure darkness.


But wait, look there I can see something what is it. We have been in darkness so long, we don't know what seeing feels like. A young boy says to his father, "can you see that dad?". A young girl says to her mother can you see the light? Can you imagine the excitement he must have felt to see true light!!!


Matthew 4:16 The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

Matthew 5:14 Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

We have the light of the world dwelling in us, as Christians. But, the problem does not lie with in the darkness the problem lies when God's children hold in that light. That light is the power and glory of God. The same light that we saw when we were saved. And know we try to hide it. Shhhh don't tell anyone that we are saved. That's why so many are coming out of the closet, because we have went in...

Luke 1:79 To give light to them that sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace.

Will you show your light today?
