Have you had your JOY JUICE today? You’ll see it more clearly if you turn on the light!
Are YOU in the dark?
Going through life without God is like trying to find your way to an unfamiliar destination in the dark. It’s much easier to travel in the daylight hours when you are going on a trip…especially if it’s a place you’ve never been before. The cover of darkness is often our enemy when we’re trying to see road signs and specific landmarks. Visibility is greatly impaired when there is not proper light.
The same is true when it comes to our spiritual vision. There are many things that can impair our sight:
- habitual sin,
- the wrong kinds of friends,
- putting our faith in money or possessions,
- being tempted by the lure of unwholesome, ungodly desires.
Open my eyes, Lord.
It’s important that we make regular Bible study a faithful habit. Even then, we may sometimes have difficulty staying focused or understanding how certain scriptures apply to us, personally. It’s at times like these that we need to pray as the psalmist did in Psalm 119:18:
“Open my eyes that I may see wonderful things in your law”.
If we’ll allow Him to shine His light along our path, we will receive new understanding of the wonderful truths found in His Word. And as He illuminates the scriptures for us, our joy will grow and we’ll be radiating His love toward others.
Drink your JOY JUICE faithfully and watch the light of Jesus shine brighter and brighter with each passing day.
