Light vs. Dark

You know, our lives are lived in two elements: light and darkness.  God’s nature is revealed in our interface with the presence and absence of light.  He has always been made known through light. The Bible’s account of the creation relates that there was total darkness until God spoke “light” into existence.  Psalm 56:13 says that He gives us the light of life. When Jesus came to earth, He described Himself as the Light of the World. He said if we follow Him, we will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.  First John 1 explains that if we live in the light, Jesus purifies us from all sin. 

Given the choice, I think all of us would prefer to fly during the day rather than at night.  We should prefer, no insist, on living in the light where everything is visible, beautiful, and safe.
