“The Lord is my light and my salvation—
    whom shall I fear?
The Lord is the stronghold of my life—
    of whom shall I be afraid?”

Psalm 27:1 NIV

When we wander off course or make poor decisions

And when we go our own way instead of drawing near to God

Life becomes more difficult, more complicated

We struggle more and get discouraged and defeated

When we turn towards God first with every decision, every day

The light of Christ will shine bright for us and illuminate our path

When we choose to put God first and we will see a light in the darkness

Thanks be to God for the Light of life

“For God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,”^[a] made his light shine in our hearts to give us the light of the knowledge of God’s glory displayed in the face of Christ.”

2 Corinthians 4:6 NIV
