Light In The Darkness

When you wake up in the middle of the night, blinded by the darkness, and trying to make it to the bathroom — if you don’t still yourself, shift your focus, and find a glimmer of light, you can injure yourself. 

The same is true when we’re walking and stumbling through a dark valley in our life. We’re blinded by the darkness and it’s hard to see the light. But it’s in these dark moments that we have to be still. We have to shift our focus from our very real set of circumstances, and find the Light. Otherwise, we can cause ourselves harm from bumbling around in the darkness. 

When you face difficulties in your life stop, shift, focus, and find the Light. Turn to God’s never-ending love and find hope in who He is. Jesus is the Light of the world and anyone who follows Him will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life (John‬ ‭8:12‬‬‬). It’s okay to trust God when things are dark. He’s got you. And He is always light in the darkness. 

Prayer: Lord thank You for being Light in my darkness. Help me to be still and know that You are God. Show me how to shift my focus from my circumstances to Your holy and righteous nature so that I can see Your light. In Jesus’ name, amen.
