Let there be light


Sometimes we need to be reminded that our steps are ordered by Lord. His path for our lives leads us through many places. Sometimes these places are ones that we would not have chosen for ourselves especially when the place is dark and we cannot see our way. We ask for the Father's wisdom to guide us and we hold onto His promises to us. We know He is faithful because He has said He is and He has proven His faithfulness to us time and again. He has said He will never leave us nor forsake us and He does not, He is with us and He is in us. His perfect love for us cast out all fear as we move along step by step.
The world all around us is a dark place. There is so much confusion and chaos. We know God is not the author of confusion, yet this sound of confusion is there. May we be reminded that in the beginning of time as we know it, there was chaos and confusion (Geneses 1) and God said, "Let there be light" and there was light. He commanded light to come out of the darkness. May we be comforted and encouraged to know that God our Father is commanding light to come out of this hour of darkness. He says "Let there be light". Let us speak what the Father is speaking. Let there be light. Let every step we take and every breath we take have these words in them, Let there be light.
