Look At The Light


 

If we walk in the light as he himself is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus his Son cleanses us from all sin. (1 John 1:7 NRSV)

E. Stanley Jones a Pastor, Preacher and Evangelist was about to go across a street. A woman pulled on his arm and said, "Look at the red light." Jones replied rather weakly, "But look at the people going across." She replied, "Don't look at them. Look at the light and follow it."

That's good advice, but many of us have quit looking at the light. We are content to watch other people and to do as they do. Society and culture are constantly changing and morals are being redefined daily. If you are a Christian don’t follow the crowd, follow Jesus. Remember saying to your children, when they insisted, "Everybody else is…" And you said, "But you aren’t every else. If they jumped off a cliff would you follow?"

Remember our true light comes from the cross of Jesus Christ.

God’s Wisdom: John 1:3-4 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

Worldly Wisdom: By following the crowd you only enslave your future. (unknown)
