“7But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the Blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.” ~ 1 John 1:7
During this week we celebrate the death and resurrection of our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. We honor Him for this Holy week, but do we honor Him the other 51 weeks of the year? We tend to make excuses on why we don’t have to live the way we ought, and when someone tries to correct us we are very quick to shout, “Ye who cast the first stone,” or “only God can judge me.” We love to say Jesus died for our sins, but we never really take it much farther.
This week I encourage you to go beyond just words, I encourage you to take action. I encourage you to hold true to what Jesus came to Earth, died, and rose again for. Don’t be like those who praised Him one day and crucified Him the next. But be like those who praised Him one day and praised Him the next and then praised Him for the rest of their life, even going as far as to praise Him with their lives even to death. Don’t allow this what Jesus did 2,000 years be counted as nothing. Walk in the light, as He is in the light, so that His death and resurrection still means something to us today and isn’t just a meaningless tradition we celebrate once a year.
Peace. Love. Go Forth and Walk In The Light.
