Hello Beauties!
“This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all.”
1 John 1:5 NIV
This verse, this truth, changed my life! For the first time I spoke angrily to God asking, “If your spirit dwells in me, and there’s no darkness in you at all, then why do I still have so much darkness in me?” This question was logical and came from an emotional place of desperation.
The next six months would blow my mind. God revealed himself to me like never before, because I was seeking him and wanting to know truth like never before. In our desperation, we lay it all down, all the pretense, pride, and polish, and humbly lay prostrate at his feet. He rid me of the darkness and filled me with his overflowing light. Jesus healed deep wounds, satisfied every need, and gave me a purpose for living life in the light.
Will he do the same for you, of course. Jesus is not a respecter of persons. (Acts 10:34) Open your heart to his truths:
“You, Lord, are my lamp; the Lord turns my darkness into light.” 2 Samuel 22:29 NIV
“You, Lord, keep my lamp burning; my God turns my darkness into light.” Psalm 18:28 NIV
“The Lord is my light and my salvation— whom shall I fear?” Psalm 27:1 NIV
“For this is what the Lord has commanded us: ‘I have made you a light for the Gentiles, that you may bring salvation to the ends of the earth.’” Acts 13:47 NIV
“The sun will no more be your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you, for the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory.” Isaiah 60:19 NIV
“Do not gloat over me, my enemy! Though I have fallen, I will rise. Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light.”
Micah 7:8 NIV
…”that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light.” 1 Peter 2:9 NIV
Meditate on these truths. Turned them into songs, so you can sing them when you’re needing an extra dose of light on those dark days. We must fight the lies with TRUTH! Are you up for the battle? Are you willing to raise your voice and ask for revelation of God and his truth? Selah.
Jesus is so worthy of our praise!

“Jesus spoke to the Pharisees again. ‘I am the light of the world,’ he said. ‘Whoever follows me will have the light of life and will never walk in darkness.’”
