“The sun will no longer be your light by day,
Isaiah 60:19-20 AMP
Nor shall the bright glow of the moon give light to you,
But the Lord will be an everlasting light for you;
And your God will be your glory and splendor.
“Your sun will no longer set,
Nor will your moon wane;
For the Lord will be your everlasting light,
And the days of your mourning will be over.
It’s easy to have confidence in God when things are going well. But, there are seasons when life seems dark and lonely. Times where every direction you turn in appears hopeless. Situations where family and friends seem so distant. It’s in those dim moments that faith can wane. The mind can wander and wonder if you will ever see light again, but I am reminding you that it will.
God is everlasting light during dark seasons.
Today, I want to encourage you to live in the light! Be confident that even in the darkest of nights God is with you. Dwell in His word for it is a lamp to your feet and light to your path. God will transform your darkest season for His glory. Keep walking in God’s light and listening to His guidance. It won’t be dark and lonely for much longer; Better days are waiting ahead.

The passage illustrates the importance of being a beacon of light in dim, dark places, as guided by Luke 11:33-36.

Your kingdom come. 3 Give us each day our daily bread, 4 and forgive us our sins, for we ourselves forgive everyone
The Beatitudes 20 And He raised His eyes toward His disciples and began saying, “Blessed are you who are poor, for yours is the kingdom of God. 21 Blessed are you who are hungry now, for you will be satisfied. Blessed are you who weep now, for you will laugh. 22 Blessed are you when the people hate you, and when they exclude you, and insult you, and scorn your
I have been lost a time or two. Usually, because I got distracted and wandered off the intended path. Whatever sparked my interest was enough to cause me to lose sight of my intended destination. In this passage, we find Jesus as a child, so focused on His Father’s business that he wanders off from his parents. In my own life, I’ve found that I’m not prone to wander towards my father’s business….but away from it.
If you or someone close to you is in need, we would be honored to lift you up in prayer. We believe in the power of prayer to bring peace, comfort, and reassurance during times of hardship. Our community is ready to join together and pray as we trust in God’s love and unending grace.
