THE LIGHT WITHIN THE LIGHT
…in your light we see light. Psalm 36:9
I am always amazed at how the Lord draws me into a new story to share. Yesterday as I went into my time with Him at the Well I stopped and lit a spiced cider candle that sits on a small table. I watched the flame dance and the warmth of the fragrance was soft and inviting. I began my time with Him in Psalm 36 and suddenly and without warning these words jumped off the page and into my heart, “in your light we see light.” I looked up to see Him whom my soul loves looking at the candle and I smiled as I saw the Light of the world bathed in the soft glow of the candlelight and then my heart got all excited and breathless as it raced back to Psalm 36:9 and read again, “in your light we see light.” I could not contain myself as my heart looked up at Him again and said, “In the light I see light.” I could tell by the light dancing in His eyes that He had arranged this moment for me and He came and took a seat very near me at the Well and His presence enveloped me there in the light. Oh the conversation we had about light.
We are entering the season of "Lights". Department store lights. Christmas tree lights. Christmas party twinkle lights. Outdoor Christmas lights. Candlelight. Fire light. Joy that lights up the eyes of dear ones welcoming sweet family members and friends into their hearts and homes. Light that sparkles in a husbands eyes as he watches his wife open a gift he planned just for her. But in the midst of all these lights there is another; the dearest Light of all. But oh how many of us miss Him: Light within the lights. Long ago the light of a star hung by unseen hands cast its light on a stable in a little known town called Bethlehem. And there in its light lay THE Light.
My dear friend, don’t let the busyness of this season steal from you the treasure of sitting with the LIGHT. Will you join me and step out of the fray and the noise and sit awhile at the Well as we have a Conversation about the Light Within The light.
