I will share about Christian books I have read or listened to.
I will be sharing about my life before and after Christ. I will include stories about my pet and other pets I have encountered.
A Light for All Nations
Have you ever seen a lighthouse up close?
For those who find themselves stuck out at sea—while winds are howling, waves are crashing, and darkness is blacker than black—a lighthouse can mean the difference between life and death. They aren’t just cute landmarks, but important navigational guides and essential beacons of hope.
In Isaiah 60, the prophet describes a vision that portrays a lighthouse of sorts: God's glory shining bright for all the world to see...
“All nations will come to your light; mighty kings will come to see your radiance.”
Isaiah 60:3 (NLT)
Without the light of God, we are all blind and hopeless. But because He made us and loves us, He has revealed the brightest light of all...
Isaiah 46:6 spoke of a coming Messiah that would be “a light to the Gentiles." And that prophecy—along with hundreds of others—was fulfilled in the person of Jesus Christ.
Jesus is the light of the world (John 8:12). His light shines into the darkness, and darkness cannot overcome it (John 1:5). Isaiah 60:19-20 goes on to say that the Lord will actually be an everlasting light, one that needs no source and will never grow dim.
Jesus explained that His people would receive power from the Holy Spirit to tell the world about Him—beginning in Jerusalem and spreading to the ends of the earth. So, if you're follower of Christ, be confident that you have been empowered to share and shine His light!
Working Through The Impossible
Throughout the pages of Scripture, God is known for doing extraordinary things. Light in the darkness, hope for the broken, and bringing help when it seems there is none. No matter what, God can transform seemingly impossible circumstances for His glory and our good.
In Luke chapter one, Mary’s lack of a husband and Elizabeth’s old age didn’t stop God from bringing Jesus and John the Baptist into the world. And today, nothing—whether it’s your past, an ongoing struggle, or a lack of resources—can stop the work that God is doing in and through you.
So, the next time you see an impossible situation in your life, remember that God is a God who works in and through those moments. He wants to talk with you about the things that feel impossible!
