Darkness can be a terrible thing. Not only can it be scary, but it is also dangerous. While physical darkness is threatening, spiritual darkness is the actual danger. At some point, all people have been spiritually blinded, but when we are exposed to Jesus and His light, we have an opportunity to not only escape the dark, but to overcome it and help bring others out. The world is lost in the darkness, and as believers, we can often try to cure the symptoms of that darkness instead of the root cause. Falsely we believe that if we create a world that looks healthy, we can deceive ourselves and think it is healthy. If we put all our energy and hope into curing the symptoms, we have already lost the true battle and missed God's call upon His church and people. We are bearers of Christ's light, and our call is to offer, share and give it to a blind world. Spiritual darkness is a growing problem, but we have the only true answer. God has given us abilities, gifts, His Word, and His Presence to walk in a dark world. Are our eyes seeing the spiritual blindness all around us? Are our hearts responding to that darkness? Do we know how to walk in the dark? Are our hearts breaking for the lost? Will we stand by or enter the world as bearers of Christ's light?
