Waking Moments

Being up at the wee hours of the morning gives one time to reflect a little. As a result I was thinking about our flight over and how we never left the daylight all of the way to Japan. It dawned on me that must be what heaven will be like....never leaving the light of Him that saved me. How awesome is that? Psalm 27:1 says "The Lord is my light and my salvation, whom should I fear?" and John 8:12 says "I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows me will never walk (or fly) in the darkness but will have the light of life". Okay, so the "or fly" was from me, but I guess you get the point. Not only will we never walk in darkness, but have you ever considered just how easy God has made this for us....just through the simple act of following His Son. That tells me right there that it's not about our religion or the good things that we do (or don't do), but by our faith in Jesus Christ. Thank goodness because I know that I could never measure up to what God deserves from me, which is exactly why he sent His Son. The perfect sacrifice for imperfect humans.
