"God is Light in the Midst of Darkness"-1 John 1:1-6


Have you ever wondered what it would have been like to be there when God created the Heavens and the Earth? (I know...random thought huh?)...Anyway, how cool would it have been to be there and hear the voice of God proclaim, "LET THERE BE LIGHT," and to put His hands down into the dirt when He created Adam and then put him to sleep to make Eve out of him? How crazy a thought that is to think about, that He would simply speak things into existence and they would not only appear there out of literally no where, but that they would be fully functioning beings and created to be in perfect relationship with God. Imagine what it was like for Adam, he appears, he's talking to God and being told of his blessings and his life and what's not recorded was the questions he must've had like, "how did I get here," "what am I here for?" You see, God created all these things simply through His breath but the coolest of them all?...LIGHT!

You see, God Himself was literally the light that He created, that existed before the creation of the world, you see throughout Scripture we read of so many examples of God calling Himself the LIGHT and He shines throughout the darkness of our lives. It's so encouraging to know that God is the light of the world and that He wants to be that Light in our lives individually as well...take courage in that today that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all...Grace and Peace.
