Kurt Steele - Meditation on God is Light

I was meditating on God today as "light". I John tells us that God is light and in Him there is no darkness. When I think of light in contrast to darkness, I imagine words like hope, guidance, peace, and security. When I ponder the word darkness, I visualize words like groping, fear, and disorientation. It makes sense because God is light and Satan is the prince of darkness. Jesus states that He is the light of the world. God calls us to be light in a dark world. Jesus points out the men love darkness rather than light because the light exposes everything. Man would rather hide their sins. As I have learned, the more my deeds are exposed in the light and forgiven by the blood of Christ, the more free I begin to walk. God is so good as He transfers us from children of darkness to children of the LIGHT. I am amazed at the wondrous glory of God that blazes with brilliance in a dark an dsinful world. We are more than conquerors. We are victorious in the light.
