"When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, 'I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.'" John 8:12, ESV
As spring is in full bloom I was pondering the blooming bushes and flowers popping up as the sun shone brightly. It made me think of how you need ‘the Son who is called the Light of the world’ and living water which is Jesus in order to have a fulfilled life. Sun and water are needed for plants and Son and living water needed for all humans.
Easter is right around the corner and many people ‘find religion’ for this special day because deep down they know fellowship with others and worshipping God is important. The pretty little girls dresses come out and toddler boys in suits and ties. Then there are the rabbits and the chicks. Satan has tried to hijack this solemn occasion probably the most important event besides Jesus’ birth.
Easter is way more than egg hunts, candy, baby chicks, and rabbits. Not sure where all that originated from but why not just celebrate what it is,The Resurrection of our Lord and Savior. Don’t just check off two days to attend worship but make it a regular part of who you are. Find a church home that you feel comfortable in and not just a ‘religious’ one. Go seek out The Son!
PRAYER: Lord I rejoice in you every day. I know many people don’t know you and many say they do but think church is silly. Father I pray for those whose love for you has grown cold. Touch them and help them find you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
