Isaiah 2:5 (NKJV) ... come and let us walk In the light of the LORD.
A shadow often hides things we would normally see, light is the key to seeing things clearly, however even in the light many see only what they wish. Why, I am so glad you asked?
God said, "Let, there be light," and a world of life and incredible adventure appeared. Everything we now understand, was exposed to all of creation, to enjoy and experience. However a shadow of darkness was uncovered when man given the choice between serving God and catering to self, chose, self serving.
Today we have both light and dark as approved means of living, conditioned by time to accept second best, man has justified the shadow of darkness as a necessary evil. We have embraced sinful living in various forms and give room to these attitudes as a part of life. Do we wish to expose these sins, a partial list is given in Galatians 5:19-21, however, most are satisfied to live in the shadow of truth?
Gently urged from the very beginning, God continues to point us back to Holy living. Looking to a point in time God said to man, I will make a way for you to return to Me. He made that provision, when the Son of God crashed into the sinfulness of men and buried all the sins of man in a sea of forgetfulness.
Imagine, every shadow of deceit, God placed on a death watch and nailed to a cross (sin), all sin, never to have control of anyones life again. Why then is sin still available, why are there still shadows, why is life so difficult, we must choose, to "Walk in the Light of the Lord."
Heavenly Father so many are struggling with life and death, they are in need of light, help, Oh God, those around us to see Your Light. Your Son said, He is "the light of the world," Oh Lord let us see that light. May all we come in contact with be exposed to Your Light, that men may walk with You. Amen
