Take time today and this week to commit Ephesians 5:8 to memory.
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light [NIV]
For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light [NKJV]
for at one time you were darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Walk as children of light [ESV]

I was struck this morning how we are now light because of Jesus but we must still choose to walk in his light daily. Sometimes I wonder why I feel so tempted to go to the dark again if I have Jesus ‘ light in me, but while reading this Scripture I realized that I do not face temptation because I am in darkness but rather because I am light and the darkness hates my light. And now it is my choice to walk with and in the new light and life I have.
Im going to put this to memory and apply it to my life, I want to be light.
“Live in the light as children of the Light” – daily words of reminder , which I need. Such a great idea to have a image to put on my cell phone to see multiple times a day ry o help memorize the verse.
This scripture was perfect today — God’s perfect plan–Always amazes me . I have been striving to let my light shine. However, I am getting the message to let go and let God…it is not me but Him. It is His light, I am just the vessel.
And I love that :-)
Dear ladies, I was catching up with the weekly truths and this one, Ephesians 5:8 is not displaying — perhaps my computer but in any event I thought I'd let you know. I have grown SO much during the time I decided to join this community and reading God's word is a necessary part of my day. I must confress that there are days when I am comsumed with the outer duties of an every day life but His word, sharing in God's word has brought my life CHANGE. I love you all for everything you do in bringing us to a closer relationship with the One that matters as from Him all good things flow and prosper. Bless you all!
What a blessing this group has been to me and my life with God and Jesus. I am growing so much. Keep it up as so many lives are being touched through all of you girls. you allow each one of us to chine brighter and reach out and touch those in our own lives. What a ministry this is!
