This Light (John 3:18-21)

 

There is no judgment awaiting those who trust.  But those who do not trust him have already been judged for not believing in the only Son of God.  Their judgment is based on this fact:  The light from heaven came into the world, but they loved the darkness more than the light, for their actions were evil.  They hate the light because they want to sin in the darkness.  They stay away from the light  for fear their sins will be exposed and they will be punished.  But those who do what is right come to the light gladly, so everyone can see that they are doing what God wants. (John 3:18-21)

This Penetrating Light

Naturally, someone who has been much in darkness as I have been can truly appreciate the enjoyment of light.  It's like coming out of a dark cave and after a long time coming out into the light...I can see, how wonderful it is!

Light always overcomes darkness.  It is the Sun that is active and the dark of night is passive, so the morning invades the night and not the other way around.  If it is so in the natural wouldn't it be like this in the spiritual realm.  Certainly, evolution can't explain it.

This Enveloping Light 

This Light envelops you and gently wraps around you.  You can trust it.  Wouldn't it be an insult to someone who has a reputation of always telling you the truth, if you, all of a sudden called him or her a liar?  It is the same with God, we know him to always say the truth, but if you choose not to trust him, it is as if you insult him.  We can fully trust that Light or that Light will judge us.

This Welcoming Light

Although this Light is the most penetrating light there is and the most overcoming also.  It is very penetrating and comfortably wraps around you and warms you up.  Why would you walk away from such benefits.  Simply, because you love more of the darkness, even though God has already defeated this darkness as I have just shown you.  The reason why more  people don't read this post is because people love their darkness more.  I cannot explain it otherwise, can you?

If I was to sell you light, I would also tell you how welcoming it is and it even benefits your health and emotions.  Such is also that spiritual Light of Jesus.  If you would walk in it you would have eternal life.  Our contribution to this Light is to let this Light 'know' us in every corner of our lives.  So 'Be known' or you will be one that Jesus will say to: "I never knew you"

The Legacy of Wisdom Proverbs 8:17

    I am more than excited about the wisdom I find in Proverbs from the Bible these days.  A wisdom that I want to grow into and be able to pass it on to future generation The book of Proverbs is to me in part an admonition from a father to his son.   A legacy of wisdom and character.   Very obviously and more than anything he does not want his son just to be wealthy    but rather, want him to be rich in wisdom from God, the highest kind of wisdom there is.   The kind of wisdom that you want to know intimately and even pass it on to the next generation.   Men, I am talking to you or with you While still reading and meditating on the Book of Proverbs from the Bible, I cannot help but experiencing it as an admonition from a father to his son.   The Father wants to pass on a legacy to his son.   Are you a father or one to be? Or perhaps, like me a grandfather who has struggled all his life to put food on the table?   Now ...

The Fruit of the Spirit...Patience?

  As I was being tested, patience was required, and I was waiting with much complaining.   Then my wife encouraged me to read the Fruit of the Spirit out of the Amplified version of the Bible.   So, I did and here it is: “But the fruit of the Spirit [the result of His presence within us] is love [unselfish concern for others],   joy [inner] peace , patience [not the ability to wait, but how we act while waiting],   kindness, goodness,   faithfulness,   gentleness,   self-control.   Against such things there is no law.” (Galatians 5:22-23) These verses not only apply to us as we go through our daily life but especially as we wait for the Lord’s return.   How we act while we wait for him does matter and it is very important.   We learn as we go through trials.   For a lot of people, the word “patience” is not welcome in their vocabulary, and I can tell by my own life I am not the only one who finds it diff...
