Out of Darkness
into Brilliant Light, God Calls
and Sends Us …
Genesis 6:8
But Noah found favour in the sight of the Lord
.
1 Peter 2:9
But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s own people, in order that you may proclaim the mighty acts of him who called you out of darkness into his marvellous light.
…
Words of Grace for Today –
…
God chooses us, favours us,
and oh, we could celebrate ourselves into oblivion with such great pride!
But
God does not choose and favour us that we may be made important in our own eyes or in the eyes of the world.
God chooses us, favours us, and then sends us out to proclaim with our deeds God’s mighty acts of saving us miserable sinners caught in the deep darknesses of our own making.
In the Light, by God’s grace alone, we see
God’s Wonders
so clearly contrasted to our own miserable attempts to make things right.
The greatest wonder is that God chooses to save us from the darkness.
Remember.
Re- member.
All that God has done for us, so that we can share it all with others.
