This morning I read Ephesians 5 and the following verse hit me.
But when anything is exposed by the light,
it becomes visible,
for anything that becomes visible is light.
Therefore it says,
Awake, O sleeper and arise from the dead
and Christ will shine on you.
The things of this world have a way of dragging us down. They can become a prison, and feel as if they strip us of choice and forcing our movements, decisions, and speech. When the darkness closes in, fear, loneliness and depression become a constant companion. Ephesians 5 lets us know there is a better way. We are called to wake up and walk into the light, shaking free from the bonds that bind us. My prayer today is that I would continue to draw closer to God's light and that he would use me to shine on others.
