This Little Light of Mine

IMG_3252

Ephesians 5:8-9 For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light (for the fruit of light consists in all goodness, righteousness and truth) and find out what pleases the Lord.

Author and speaker Luci Swindoll writes ” Note (Ephesians 5:8) doesn’t say we are like light, it says we  are light. Just as the flashlight draws power from its batteries, we draw power from the son of God. As light, we dissipate fear, bring relief and lift spirits. We don’t have to be big to be effective. We just have to be on.”

Thanking God for sending Swindoll’s  devo my way this week and reminding me that I don’t have to be perfect or anywhere close to it.

I just have to be “on.”

He’ll do the rest.
