Sundays With Joyce

Light


1. Believers are full of light    Ephesians 5:8    For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light of the world:  walk as children of light.
2. Eye is a lamp for the body    Luke 11:34    The light of the body is the eye:  therefore when thine eye is single, thy whole body also is full of light; but when thine eye is evil, thy body is full of darkness.
3. God lives in unapproachable light    1 Timothy 6:16    Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see:  to whom be honor and power everlasting.  Amen.
4. Let our lives shine brightly    Philippians 2:15    That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverted nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
5. God's Word is a lamp    Psalms 119:105    Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path

 

 

The Glorious Light

One night while looking above
I saw a light shining in the sky
It twinkled gloriously of God's love.
So beautifully bright...by and by.

It was a cold, crisp, clear night.  
I could see forever and ever.
The beauty of everything so bright.
It was a night I wouldn't forget...never.

There were millions of twinkling stars.
Each with a brilliance all its own...
Shining near by and away so far.
Letting me know I wasn't alone.

Then all of a sudden, one star stood out.  
It came to me as if in a dream.
Capturing my attention without a doubt.
Bringing God's message, it seems.

 

In the center was a magnificent sight.
An Angel that was sight to behold.
Her omnipresence was a glorious light.
She was dressed in soft white and gold.

Saying "God has sent me here.  
Because He loves you so.
He wants you to know He holds you dear.
He will never, ever let you go."

From that moment on I knew I was all right.
And I knew that alone I would never be.
Just hold close to that beautiful sight.
The Angel saying "God loves me".

Our God is so very just.  
He loves us each and every one.
In Him we must place our trust.
For His work is one on one...

Everyday the sun comes up, it is God's way of saying to us: 

I love you! 
I have not forgotten you!

  3. Joyce as I began to try and read this it just made me cry. As if God was trying to tell me a reason why he took my best friend away from me today. I can't understand it I just feel so much pain. Every line in this poem made me think her even more. I thankj you for this. Just trying to make sense of why she gone away.
