Light in the Darkness

FIRST15
About this episode

One of the best ways we can be used by God is by simply being ourselves. The identity Christ has given us as daughters and sons is meant to shine forth and be a witness to those around us. May you be encouraged today in your identity in Christ and freed from any unnecessary weight you’ve been carrying.

Our Scripture for today comes from Matthew 5:16, and today's worship is Springtime by Chris Renzema.

Thank you so much for listening to today’s devotional on living as light in the darkness. 

 

As you head out into the rest of your day, look for opportunities where you can be a light in the dark. Look for ways to encourage the discouraged, to love the unloved, to ask good questions and listen, to share your story when someone is at a low point in their own. 

 

May God use you in powerful ways today to reveal his light to those living in a moment of darkness. 

 

Make sure to rate, review, and subscribe.

 

Have a wonderful rest of your day, and may God bless you as you seek him.
