Darkness

1John  5: 19, We know that we are of God, and the whole world lies under the sway of the wicked one.

A brief analogy. Suppose you found yourself in a coal mine. There is no light. You stumble around because there are many tunnels, and you can't see your hand in front of your face. It is so dark that feelings of oppression, depression, and total hopelessness overcome you.

 You stumble around, about to lose your mind, you suddenly see a tiny light in the distance. As you stumble, the light gets bigger, and your spirits rise. When you reach the daylight, and breathe the fresh air, you experience total Joy.

If you have eyes to see, you realize that the world we live in, is just as dark spiritually, because satan, the ruler of this world is the Prince of Darkness.

1Peter 5:8, Be sober, be vigilant, because your adversary the devil walks about like a roaring lion, seeking whom he may devour.

Hate, lies, corruption, and rejection of God, is what satan is all about. He is the top deceiver of all-time. With satan bad is good, and good is bad.

2Corinthians 4: 4, Whose minds the Gods of this age have blinded, who do not believe, lest the light of the Gospel of the glory of Christ, who is the image of God, should shine on them.

We can go on and on. Anyone can see what is going on in this world. Some people know something's not right, and some even realize that Jesus is the light their hearts have been looking for. The place to find Him my friends is in His Word, the Bible.

John 8:12, Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying. “ I am the light of the world. He who follows me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life”.

 I guess you can't get any plainer than that. Most Christians know by now, Jesus knocks at  everyone’s door,  but not everyone lets Him in. Someday time will run out for this world, and no one knows when that will be. Don't count on being able to decide tomorrow if you want Jesus in your heart, because tomorrow may not come. God bless you and your family. 

Praise The Lord!

 Remember Jesus loves you
