wfw - Light of the World

John 8:12 "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.

Many know that God is there but don't know how to connect with Him. The connection of God is called faith, and faith is something you put or place in someone, not something you "work up". It is believing that the promise of God's Word have your name attached to them, that this marvelous God who sent His Son into our world knows your name, cares about you, and will respond to your heart cry.

A.W. Tozer, in his book "The Pursuit of God", wrote, "When we lift our inward eyes to gaze upon God we are sure to meet friendly eyes gazing back at us, for it is written that the eyes of the Lord run to and fro throughout all the earth."

    How lovely - and what a sweet verse. It immediately reminded me of one of my favorite praise and worship songs - Here I am to Worship by Tim Hughes:

    Light of the world
    You stepped down into darkness.
    Opened my eyes, let me see.
    Beauty that made this heart adore You
    Hope of a life spent with You

    Here I am to worship,
    Here I am to bow down,
    Here I am to say that You're my God...

    Awesome and encouraging. Thank you :)
