All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it for fear their sins will be exposed. But those who do what is right come to the light so others can see that they are doing what God wants. – John 3:20-21(NLT)
COME TO THE LIGHT
A poem and essay by ILMA
Are you in the midst of adversity and trials?
Are you boldly embracing God’s will or in total denial?
All who do evil hate the light and refuse to go near it
They do not want to change and faithfully commit.
Those who are righteous are equipped to win the fight
They want others to see what God does in their lives
If you want victory over sin, then come to the light
You will reap the harvest that God promised in your life.
I lived in total darkness a good number of my life. It was an awful time of hopelessness and desperation. I hated myself and had a hard time accepting others. I lived in total harmony with the world’s system. Self-glorification was the motivation for doing almost everything. It was a life full of misery and conflict.
The bible says that those who do evil, do not want to come near the light for fear of being exposed but those who are righteous, come to the light so others can glorify God.
PRAYER
Lord, enlighten my life always.
REFLECTION
How has God shown light in your life?
