"Follow the Light"

Have you ever driven in thick fog?  How did you respond?   I am sure you didn’t speed up… or you could slam into a car ahead or even drive off the road.  The natural response would be to slow way down, turn on our hazard lights, and keep the vehicle between the lines, following the tail lights of another vehicle out of the fog.  Have you ever been caught somewhere when the power goes off and its pitch black? I mean so dark you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face?  What did you do? I suppose the prudent thing to do is to search for any light at all, and then put our hands in front of us and walk slowly so we won’t trip, toward the light.  The answers to these questions seem basic enough, yet they also are answers for many of us tonight in our current state.  I spent years ignoring God and His will for my life and instead pursued any and every thing that I thought would bring me happiness.  I call that “The Good Lie!” You know what it brought me?  It brought me darkness and emptiness and misery.  I found myself living a life out of harmony with who God wanted me to be.  I was lost and completely demoralized and almost lost everything.  How did I respond to this darkness?  I continued full speed ahead!  More alcohol, more indulgences, more self-gratification!  The darkness and fog are indicators of our current condition and should compel change within us!  The emptiness and pain inside are also the equivalent  and represent estrangement from God.  Tonight, if you are feeling alone, afraid, and empty inside, slow down and follow the light out of the darkness and exchange the Good Lie for the Good Life in Jesus Christ.  Thanks for letting me share.  Randy Young
