Love speaks in the dark place…. Over here!
Come delve into Scriptures and Light will appear,
In its pages you will see,
The answer to the darkness inside of thee.
His name is beautiful upon lips of clay,
When uttered by the faithful…. darkness flees away.
The holy name of Jesus (the Light),
Pierces even the darkest of nights.
The holy blood that was shed at the cross,
Made the way for the lost.
The love of God provided the Way,
So on His path you could stay.
There is no place,
Too dark for God’s Grace.
There is no sin under the sun,
That can stop the heart that desires to come.
Are you lonely, fearful, or sad?
Are you bitter, confused or mad?
Are you lost in a dark, dark place?
Will you hear love calling you?  Will you seek His face?
Love says…. Read the Words holy and true
Delve into the Scriptures and God lights the way for you!

John 8:12
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

Psalms 119:105
Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.

Am I Living in the Light? By Brenda Drake

We live in a dark world with so many things that can and will pull us astray.  There are times when we wonder are we going the right direction?  Perhaps we begin to question ourselves in our confusing times.  Are we walking in the light?   The walk of faith trusts God to lead and guide us.  He is also the light within that shows the way of right is Jesus. When we follow Him we prove we are Christians by our love for one another.

Am I Living in the Light?

When choice comes for flesh to show its face,
Is it rejected to instead reveal grace?
If you fail do you quickly repent and direction change?
Or do you find it too difficult to your life rearrange?
To answer your question, Are you living in the light?
Do you walk ahead in faith or only by what is in sight?
To faith-walk you need God’s light within.
He shows the way as you follow after Him.
To walk in the light you need to in the Spirit rest.
In belief and trust that God’s way is best.
Living in the light will reveal inner stain.
When living in the light God breaks away the chains.
Self and selfish ways are put aside,
So in the light you are able to abide.
The light of love will take its rightful place,
So another will successfully find the way of grace.

Ephesians 5:8
For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:

1 John 1:7
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
