Live without blemish as children of God in a dark world full of people who are crooked and stubborn. Shine out among them like beacon lights, holding out to them the Word of Life. Philippians 2:15b-16a
God, in His infinite wisdom and sovereignty, has left us on earth on purpose and for a purpose. In a world where the majority are going the wrong way, we are left as lights – stoplights, directional lights, illuminating lights. As living examples of the right way. We are spiritual salmon swimming upstream.
