Jesus is Light

 

 

 

 

John 1:4 (NIV)

4 In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind.

Jesus is the life, and that life is the light of all mankind. In John 10:10, Jesus said, "I came so that you may have life and have it more abundantly". You have to believe it first and then start walking in the abundance God intends for your life. Once the light penetrates darkness, there is newness of life. Don't contemplate, "How am I going to keep this light burning?". God will supply you with the tenacity to keep on going, keep on shining, and keep on working to build the Kingdom.

Oftentimes, we may stray away from what it is that God wants for our lives. Each individual is predestined to contribute to the Kingdom of God. Don't let anyone deter you from doing what you know is right, according to God's instructions contained in the Holy Bible. Man can instruct many things that do no line up with the Word of God. So, you must continue to study for yourself.

Always seek the truth and stand on it. Don't compromise who God made you, for what man wants to use you for in this life. There is so much more to do and see. However, you have to continue to seek the light, stay concentrated on the truth, and give glory and honor to God. He is the life giver, so keep the light burning. The light of TRUTH. You can transform this generation, by Knowing, Applying, and Teaching the precepts of Jesus Christ!

    "Don't compromise who God made you, for what man wants to use you for in this life." Dear LaKenya you're right about that. I think most ppl struggle to become someone else and GOD won't help them to reach that very goal. Each of us is unique, one in a kind and He wants us to celebrate our uniqueness in Him. GOD is light and we're His light bulbs.Let's embrace who we're and enjoy this life He has given us!Alleluia! :)

Thank You!

  Thank You DFA and Family   This serves as a “Thank You” to all of you who are reading this right now. Today is my last day at DFA. Although some of you were here when I came to DFA back in June of 2000, many have retired or moved on to various other assignments. Some have come after I started with DFA. I have had the opportunity over the last few weeks to execute a brief version of a succession plan. What usually takes years, I had to condense in a few weeks. However, I feel assured that the work of DFA will continue with excellence. I did not want any of you to worry about how you were getting paid, so I preferred to work until my last day and think of it as a “see you soon” rather than a "good bye". Good byes are not my forte, because they seem so final. So, I will see you soon. I will be rooting for you and know that DFA will succeed. The years and seasons have gone by so quickly. Time surely waits for no one. As a nation and state, we find ourselves still in the m

What profits a Person to Gain the Whole World?

What Profits a Person to Gain the Whole World and lose his/her soul? The soul is deemed integral or essential to consciousness and personality . As I contemplate on this thought, I have to take a look in the mirror at myself. With any evaluation made, one must first perform a self assessment , which equates to self-awareness . Knowing where you stand on a particular subject or how you feel about a particular topic, first requires some soul searching and getting to know SELF . So, I ponder and pray sometimes about the direction God wants me to take; about the decisions God wants me to make; about the work God wants me to do; about the associations God wants me involved in; about the influences God wants me to have on others; about the thoughts God wants me to write; and about the people God wants me to touch; then I pick up my Bible to read and He reveals some of these things that I ponder over. Oftentimes, I may not know where to start, but He leads me to where he wants me to g

Don't Waste Your Time...

Don't waste your time arguing with or listening to people who are argumentative by nature. Some people will "argue with a stop sign", that's what they use to say in the old days. Just ignore the noise and focus on other things that are more important. Let the small stuff go! There are many more urgent things going on that require more attention. Let us take a look at John chapter nine. Here, Jesus heals a man who was blind at birth and the Pharisees were trying to find out every thing they could to find fault in the miraculous thing Jesus did for this man. First, the disciples asked Jesus, what sin did the man commit? John 9:1 - As he went along, he saw a man blind from birth. 2 His disciples asked him, “Rabbi, who sinned, this man or his parents, that he was born blind?” Jesus answers, 3 “Neither this man nor his parents sinned,” said Jesus, “but this happened so that the works of God might be displayed in him. 4 As long as it is day, we must do the works of him w

Love! The Greatest Commandment.

 Love  Love  Love! The Greatest Commandment. Matthew 22:34-39 (NIV) 34 Hearing that Jesus had silenced the Sadducees, the Pharisees got together. 35 One of them, an expert in the law, tested him with this question: 36 “Teacher, which is the greatest commandment in the Law?”   37 Jesus replied: ‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ 38 This is the first and greatest commandment. 39 And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.' Love is an action word! It is more than a notion, a belief, some fantasy. It is truly seen by way of one's actions. Love causes us to sacrifice many of the our own personal agendas and follow God's agenda. His agenda is for us to love Him with all our hearts, every inch of our being and mind. When we extend a helping hand to that lady in the store who just had back surgery and is not able to pick up an item she just dropped in line, we show love . When we
