God's Blue Light Special

Light. Something we all take for granted. Especially since the invention of electricity. Light has been a guide for us. Guiding us through the darkness. Guiding us in many ways. Have you ever seen those huge spotlights, 3 or 4 at a time, shining to lead you to a car dealership or another store special? Then there is K-Mart with their Blue light special, leading to a section of the store where there is a special deal going on. Light houses shine a light to show us the way around rocky coast lines, runway lights guide a plane in for a safe landing, and of course there is the soap opera "The Guiding Light". Not quite sure what that is guiding us to?. We use a flashlight to guide us through dark unknown woods. Or a candle or lantern to guide the way. God has given us a light to guide us to Him. His word is a light. Psalm 119:104-106 says "Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light upon my path." There is actually a song with those words. I was listening to it the other day. It's a beautiful song. You can listen to it here -
His life saving flashlight is the bible. But just having the bible and reading it is not going to save you from the darkness. It is a guide and it's up to you how you use that guide. But living His words, His commandments, will guide you to Him. Living His words will help guide you through the darknss of sin. He is the one true light. And he wants us to share this light. If a friend was lost in the woods or his electricity went out wouldn't you lend him a flashlight or some candles to help them find their way? We should do the same with His word. Share it with those around us to help guide them to Him. So watch for His blue light special. I promise you it's the best deal you'll ever come across.
