1:7

Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened,

and Iwill give you rest. Take my

yoke upon you and learnfrom me, for I am gentle and humble of heart andyou will find rest for your

soulsMatthew 11:28,29

This is the news, the good news we heard from and saw in the life of Jesus (who is the complete and true revelation

of what real life is). Now we ring out this

declaration that he, with all authority, commissioned us to proclaim: “God is light! In Him there is not the slightest speck

of darkness.”

Now suppose we tell everyone that we have a partnership, a communion and relationship with God who is Light and yet we live our lives covering up and hiding, keeping out what God’s purity and holiness exposes in our lives…

well, we are lying to ourselves and do not live in the open and revealing

light of God. But if we live our lives in open exposure of God’s light, his glorious light that penetrates and

shows us who we are; that partnership, communion and

relationship with God exists and the blood of Jesus, His Son, continually

whitewashes and cleanses and takes away absolutely all sin in our lives.
