Isaiah 49:6 gives every living soul a purpose, a reason for being. It says, “Hence, I will also appoint you as light to the nations so that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth.” Coming into the light and being the light are biblical themes that illuminate the truth of what God […]
Hence, I will also appoint you as light to the nations so that my salvation may reach to the end of the earth. Isaiah 49:6, CEB If you’ve been appointed to be the light to the nations, the community, the neighborhood, or your workplace, then why do you so often slip into the shadows? Perhaps […]
The light was in the world, and the world came into being through the light, but the world didn’t recognize the light. The light came to his own people, and his own people didn’t welcome him. Luke 1:10-11 About thirty years after the resurrection of Christ, an ardent Jewish scholar and Pharisee, was threatened […]
I have a friend in East Tennessee who is always a glimmering light. The first thing she says when you see her is, “Hello, Gorgeous!” Now, I don’t know about you, but it’s been some time since I felt I was even a glimpse of gorgeous, so this phrase makes me blush. It makes me […]

British theologian and preacher F.B.Meyer said, “We never test the resources of God until we attempt the impossible!” Most of us are familiar with the idea of risk and reward. We imagine if we invest in something that isn’t absolutely certain, but seems like a good bet, we’ll get a grand payoff. After all, if […]
Remember the old flash cameras that gave you momentary blindness after the photo was taken? You had to blink a few times to get those yellow circles to stop distorting your vision. Other things can distort your vision too. You can be blinded by the bright lights of an oncoming motor vehicle. You have […]
Overwhelmed? Wondering when things will make sense again, when you won’t feel like everyday brings a few more black clouds? Well, you’re not alone.
