Monday - The Light of Christ in Your Life

“For once you were full of darkness, but now you have light from the Lord. So live as people of light! For this light within you produces only what is good and right and true. Carefully determine what pleases the Lord.” Ephesians 5:8-10 (NLT)

Post Comment: What enables the Light of Christ to produce goodness in your life? What gets in the way of letting your light shine?

: Let the Light of Christ shine in your life! You have been rescued and brought into the kingdom of light. As a believer you are united with Christ who is the Light. Therefore you not only live in the light; you are the light! When the light of Christ shines in your life it produces goodness, righteousness, and truth within you. As a child of the Light you are expected to be careful. You know what is good and pleasing to the Lord. Let the Light of Christ shine in your life!

Daily studying and reading scripture, praying, remembering to be thankful and appreciative of the blessings I have been given keeps God in my mind and heart. My day is focused outside myself. Once in a while I allow other things to take away my time with God in the morning. Those days contain more about me and less of Him. I am not careful. I get in the way of the “good” that could have happened. I don’t let the light of Christ shine through me as brightly. Spending time with God makes a difference in how I handle my day.

Good Morning, What an interesting concept and so true; I have something to do with how brightly Jesus' light shines through me. I think I need to sit down with my devotional now and start this day out right. My battery is getting ready to die so I have to end this post for now. Talk to you tomorrow.
