Ephesians 5:8 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light.
Walking is supposed to be very good for us but we can only go one step at a time. Lots of people have step counters today and they aim to maybe do 10,000 steps a day. In the same way our walk with the Lord is also one step at a time and our aim is to do each step with Him, but so often we're trying to run ahead, or at others we're lagging behind because we're distracted with other things.
We can only walk in the light we have for that day but that's ok because it's all the light we actually need. We don't need light for tomorrow because God will give it to us when we get there. It's a bit like the manna God gave the Israelites - they only needed enough for one day and learned to trust Him for tomorrow.
1 Thessalonians 5:5 You are all sons of light and sons of the day. We are not of the night nor of darkness.
We have Jesus on the inside of us who is The Light of the World so we have all the light we shall ever need. Our part is to believe He is imparting His light in us and out of us and as we take time to read His Word He often sheds 'light' on our circumstances doesn't He? 😊
Psalm 119:105 Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
Lord help us walk as children of Light today, one step at a time with You and we know all will be well as You light up our path into the coming year. Amen.
