In a World so Full of Darkness...

 Take a moment to look around and what do you see?  I know what I see.  Violence, Hatred, Persecution, Manipulation, Lies, Deception, and just inconceivable Darkness everywhere.  These things are happening worldwide not just in our little corner in the world.  Things look bleak at most times.  No way is it possible to find our way out of this Darkness.  I'm here to tell you that there is a way out, and a way to actually be a Light in this Darkness for others.  No I don't mean turning on your cell phone light.  It's actually more simple than that.  To be a light for this world in all this darkness it just takes Kindness, Humility, Mercy, Grace, Helping others, showing someone how Jesus can change their life.  The last one on that list is the most important and the easiest thing that you can do.  Accepting God into your life is as easy as 1.2.3.  Knowing in your heart that Jesus is the Son of God, and Died for all our Sins.  Letting Jesus take the wheel, giving up that need for control.  I was recently on a trip to Tennessee and the views I was able to see were breath taking.  I sat in a chair with a cup of coffee, btw I drink Black Coffee because that is the right way to enjoy it, back to my point, I would sit in the Darkness just waiting.  What I was waiting for was that Light to come up over those mountains, and make the Darkness disappear.  Guess what, just like clockwork that Light would creep over the Smokies and the Darkness would disappear.  A relationship with Jesus isn't that much different.  You can sit there in the Darkness, doing nothing, deserving nothing, cold and broken.  Then out of nowhere, like that sunrise, God will show you the light, and push that Darkness out of your life.  This is only possible because Jesus loved you so much that he took on all Sin for all of us.  He suffered so that we may have that chance to be in the Light.   Don't sit in that Darkness waiting for something to change.  God is there to show you that light, all you need to do is take it, then spread it to others.  Imagine what this world could be if we all took that light and spread it to others.  Before you know it that Darkness is gone.
