1 John 1:7
But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.
In the light, we can have fellowship. What does in the light mean? How does that affect our relationships?
Let me answer those questions by asking you what do think when you think of darkness? We usually think of sin. It can be lies, hatred, anger, cruelty, or any other number of awful things. Put it this way, you aren’t likely to find these listed in an ad or description on one of those dating sites. Seriously can you imagine!
Could be single, lying, cheating, scum of the earth seeking, cruel, heartless individual to share a life full of hate, anger, and misery. 😂😂😂😂
When we are in the light, we are open, honest, humble, patient, kind, and enter fruits of the Spirit here. We practice all those things we want in a companion. We want to work together and do it quite well.
It is in the light we find not only each other but Christ Himself. So, why would we not want to be in the light? Yes, it is revealing and we see our shortcomings, but we also find the grace to work on them. Best part, we are never alone there!
Lord, I know the light is bright and will reveal things about me that I would rather keep in the dark. However, I also know to work on them, I need You and honest relationships with others. ~amen
