A Light Has Dawned

You may be wondering, "What am I doing here in the middle of this hopeless mess called life?  What's the use, why am I here anyway?  Does anyone really care?".  Your life is going around in circles and seems to lead nowhere.

Fact is, you are not alone.  Most people, including Christians are in the same boat with you, waiting for something to happen.  They don't have a clue about why they are here and much less God's will for their lives and are spiritually bankrupt.

My question to you is, where are you looking, up or down?  Most are looking toward the earth and see only darkness and distress and fearful gloom.  However, if you are willing to look up for a change, there will be no more gloom and fearfulness.  You, among those who continue to look down, will see a great light shining though you feel like you have been living in the shadow of death, "A Light Has Dawned".  You finally realize that only God has all the answers for your life.

A new day has begun as you realize, Jesus saves.  You will rejoice when you know that you can trust in Him and not be afraid anymore.  You will feel like shouting out, "The Lord, the Lord is my strength and my song; He has become my salvation!".

Everything exposed by the light becomes visible, for it is light that makes everything visible.  Isaiah 26:19 says, "Wake up, O sleeper, rise form the dead, and Christ will shine on you.".  You need to grasp how wide and long, and high and deep is the love Christ has for you.

Jesus knows about your struggles, and knows that they are not against flesh and blood, but against spiritual forces of evil in the heavenly realms.  He has got you covered with a full set of armor that will protect you.  You can stand firm with your belt of truth and the breastplate of righteousness in place; and the shield of faith.  Then, most importantly for anyone experiencing struggles, take up the helmet of salvation and sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God.

Now, you will not feel alone with life's problems and you can call out "Hold Me Jesus" and He will be right there.  He will let His light shine on you, giving you grace and understanding.  And you will know your new happiness and freedom are there because:

"A Light Has Dawned"

And now you can see Jesus.
