Tuesday Jan 16^th – Come to the light … see and be seen

Morning: Psalms 26, 28; Genesis 9:1-17; Hebrews 5:7-14

Evening: Psalms 36, 39; John 3:16-21

“Come into the light,” we say, either when we can’t see someone or when we want them to see something.  Sometimes, perhaps for shame or fear, we don’t want to be seen.  Yet, when we feel good about ourselves, we are not to be afraid to step into the light.  I learned that when Jesus talked about “fishing for people” he meant bringing them out of the depths of darkness and into the light.  When you step into light, you can see and be seen.  Similarly, when you let go of shame and fear, you see life with greater clarity.
