Light of Gracious Love
Sittin in cambridge coffee, my home away from home and the Lord is faithful... i sit back and think how crazy this is... (his faithfulness in and to His word) the creator of the universe chose to speak life right into my life in a way only he can do in Auburn Alabama while drinking coffee on a regular old Tuesday morning. And, he is the same faithful father to all creation everyday, at all times, always, never changing ... for all eternity. He chooses to love us faithfully and he is so much more commited to my heart then i ever could be to him. So, i am loved by the Father and therefore because of Christ's compassion for me i am charged to shed the light of love and walk as a child of light. |Eph. 4.29 - 5.21| i read over those verses and was convicted and floored by the perspective my heart gained.
We are to be imitators of God... and live a life of love. We are challenged to hold our tongues, remove ourselves from bitterness and cast hatred far from our hearts. So many times because i think im a "nice person" and rarely have beef with anyone that my heart doesn't harbor these things towards people. Man was i wrong, i sat back and really dug into my heart and discovered some things that Christ has already set me free from yet i was still holding onto. "Walk as children of light because everything exposed in the light becomes visible... so therefore, wake up sleeper rise from the dead and Christ will shine on you."
Walking in grace and love (children of light) assumes something. That anger, bitteress, greed, jealousy, pride or sexual immorality are not the dominant feeling of our hearts.
We are beloved children of the King, walk in it.
