As we get more involved here in the community we see the need for Light in so many areas of life. There are marriages in pain, people struggling to feed their children, youth looking for significance in the wrong places. I know these problems are not unique to Belize...they exist around the world. There seems to be darkness everywhere. May those of us who pray to the Light call upon Him to enter into the darkness of our neighborhoods and bring wholeness to those in our midst who are struggling.

So true, Alida. There are many who are walking in darkness and looking for answers. Jesus, the Light of the World, is the only answer.
ReplyDeleteI pray that as Christians, people will see that shining light through us.

This too is our prayer here in China that they may see "the Light" Jesus Christ in us.

Amen! I love that scripture and your photo. May He shine his light in the neighborhoods all over the bloge where darkness reigns.
ReplyDeleteWell said Alida. Well said. The Light needs to spread across the world. Too many are in darkness that shouldn't be in darkness.
