Look Into the Light

Each week I get a reminder that it is time to write another blog post. And as you can tell, I have been ignoring that reminder. I kept thinking that I didn't have anything to say. But the truth of the matter is that I wasn't taking the time to slow down and be still with my thoughts enough to write.

Today is different.

Looking at the marjoram plant that I brought inside from the cool weather, I noticed how it is turning toward the light. And then I said, "Why can't we be like plants and turn toward the light, no matter how dim?"

Usually we complain about how dark it is. When we do so, we fail to notice the light breaking up the darkness. Christ is our light--Shining through ALL darkness. Christ's light is so strong, darkness cannot overcome it. So let's look into the light. Let's turn toward Christ.
No matter what is going on in our lives, let's be like plants that reach for the light.
No matter which way they are positioned, plants turn toward the light.
