The light is coming

The true light that shines on everyone was coming into the world.

John 1:9 CEVDC

I want to share with you a story submited by Victoria Landcaster:

“We were moving to a new state after my husband had been out of work for many months and we had no money. In fact, we had to borrow money to reach our destination town. Anyway, it was my husband, 2 boys ages 4 and 2, and myself, 7 months pregnant, in an old Volvo station wagon. We had been driving for 2 days in the middle of winter (the car's heater wasn’t working), and we had taken a route that was very desolate. There was nothing around for miles - no cars, buildings, or signs of civilization. Suddenly, our car started losing power and the gauges went all haywire. We saw a light in the distance and managed to roll to a stop in front of this property that looked like a small humble residence. Our cell phones had no reception, and it was freezing outside, so I didn't know if we were going to make it out of this situation alive. My husband got out of the car to see if there was something he could do to get us rolling again, but it was not looking good. A short while later, a man came out of the residence and spoke with my husband a bit before inviting us all in to his home. He and his wife took us in, fed us, and made us feel at home as we scrambled to find some way to get to our destination, which was still a few hours drive away. We were able to call a friend and get a ride, leaving our broken car behind, but not before the couple gave us food and water for our journey. One week later, this dear sweet couple towed our car all the way to our place and refused to take anything in return, except for us to pay it forward - and we had, and will continue to do so forever.”

I don't know where you are right now. Maybe you are in need of light or maybe you are the light. One thing I know, and this is God’s message for us today. No matter how dark life is, He always has prepared something for you. A small light to brighten up your day, your life. Just ask for His presence. He that is the light will surely come. Once you receive the light you can't remain hidden and you will start shinning for others. We are the light of the world because we have the Light in our lives. Let it purify us and let us shine bright to everyone.
