"The power of focusing can be seen in light. Diffused light has little power or impact, but you can concentrate its energy by focusing it. With a magnifying glass, the rays of the sun can be focused to set grass or paper on fire. When light is focused even more as a laser beam, it can cut through steel. There is nothing quiet as potent as a focused life, one lived on purpose..."
-The Purpose Driven Life
What a powerful picture of the power of light. I was reading in Ephesians 5:8-14. It says:
"For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light, and find out what pleases the Lord. Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, but rather expose them. For it is shameful even to mention what the disobedient to in secret. But everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for it is light that makes everything visible."
I am a child of light. God has said to me, "Go light up the world." And I have the power, with my Light, to cut through steel. To cut through chains. To cut through every bit of darkness that comes up against me.
I have to believe this. I claim this.
The Best Is Yet To Come...
I love you Eryn!
