The light

So I just got back from youth group and it was breathtaking! Stormi said something that really stuck out to me.

"You will never see how bright the light is until you put it up to the darkness."

That's so true! You never truly see how bright Gods light shines for you, until you put it up next to the darkness you once were.

We all have dark times. I still fear my darkest days, but I know that that's not who I am anymore. God has given me his light! He shine through me and I will praise him. It wasn't until recently that I reflected on my past and my darkness that I really realized how much God has changed me. In just a little over a year my life has been transformed.

The other day I was reading old conversations from before I accepted Christ and in my mind i thought "Wow was that really me?" Even though it wasn't that long ago. Its still weird to imagine that darkness. That is a place I don't ever want to live in again. I want to live in Gods light!

I believe that at one point in all of our lives we have lived in darkness. God wants to take that darkness from you. He wants to shine his light bright! He can only do that if you let him. Think of how amazing it could be if even during dark times a light was still shining! That's what God can do.

"You will never see how bright the light is until you put it up to the darkness"
