Good morning, everyone! :)

Ephesians 5:8-10
At one time you were in the dark. But now you are in the light because of what the Lord has done. Live like children of the light. The light produces what is completely good, right and true. Find out what pleases the Lord.

"Living in the light" sometimes seems like a cliche phrase that Christians throw around without really knowing what it means. But this light vs. dark issue is a matter of life or death, spiritually speaking! The first step to walking in the light is to place our trust in Jesus' death and resurrection for our salvation from sin. So then we are in the light "because of what the Lord has done". Yet living in the light is our responsibility, a day by day (moment by moment!) decision to live in a way that pleases the Lord--a way that is "completely good, right and true".
Father, help me to choose to walk in Your light day by day, moment by moment--finding out what pleases You and living it out in my life!
May the Lord bless you richly as you live like a child of the light!
