Turn from Darkness to Light

Let us pray to the Lord our God for help. He is readily listening for our words. He wants to know us, and He wants us to trust in Him. Through Him, we are safe. Through Him, we will not perish.

“Rise and stand upon your feet, for I have appeared to you for this purpose, to appoint you as a servant and witness to the things in which you have seen me and to those in which I will appear to you, delivering you from your people and from the Gentiles—to whom I am sending you to open their eyes, so that they may turn from darkness to light and from the power of Satan to God, that they may receive forgiveness of sins and a place among those who are sanctified by faith in me.”

(Acts 26:16-18)

From the first breath we took, God was there. He watches over us, making sure we will not stumble and fall. His angels surround us, protecting us in all that we do. We should not fear to have God the Father rescue us. He gave His son Jesus so that we might live.

Let us praise God for He is good. He loves us, guides us and takes care of us in our time of need. Let us praise Him for all His generous gifts. He blesses us with peace, gives us security and leads us through trial, when we need Him the most.

Let us give of our worship to the great and only God. For whatever we are suffering, He will give us rest. His love for us will never grow cold, for His love never fails. He will always look after us, and He will always be there for us.

Turn from darkness to light.

  1. Jack Flacco, I need to stop reading the news, because it is a real nightmare going on out there. Philippians 4:8 tells us to think on higher things. Praise God for sending His Son to die for us in our miserable condition, and thank you for your very timely message. God bless you for helping to spread the Good News!

    1. Sue, know that God knows your heart and will keep you safe in the days of turmoil. He will lose not one of His sheep. God bless you always in all that you do and may His peace be with you.

  2. A beautiful post and a reminder that God is always with me through all of the struggles I have faced. He walks with me as I care for my daughter who is chronically ill with every admission to the hospital he has never us to journey alone this difficult road and I thank him
    Blessings
