Lazaroo – Saturday, September 25, 2010
No comments, Sep 25, 2010
Pray the words of this Lazaroo aloud, in grateful awe:
“God is light.”
(1 John 1:5)
What a stunning revelation of who You are, Jesus!
Please help me grasp what You’re saying.
Something tells me there’s an eternity of meaning
in those three, simple words.
You’re not telling me You’re “similar” to light.
You’re declaring that You are light.
Light is what You are.
Wow.
That means
everything else is darkness.
it’s only by You
that I see
everything else is cold
You alone
keep me warm
everything else is sterile
nothing is creatable
apart from You
everything else is powerless
You are the Source
of all accomplishment
everything else is ignorance
all knowledge
is revealed by You
everything else is colorless
every hue of the rainbow
radiates from You
everything else is confusion
all clarity
comes from You
everything else is death
for You are the Author of all life
including mine.
