Lighting the Way

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.—John 1:5 (NIV)

Lord, You are my beacon in life’s many storms. You are always there when I need You, and for that I am forever grateful.

Unquestioning Obedience

When Joseph woke up, he did what the angel of the Lord had commanded him and took Mary home as his wife. Matthew 1:24 (NIV)
