The Book of Light

It's been said that the quality of your life can be directly traced back to the decisions you make.
Yet how do you decide? We are can get paralyzed by many decisions, so many choices and so much conflicting advice. Its even more frightening when you are making decisions that affect your family or business.
It seems like we have to make these choices in the dark.
Darkness is fine when you're sleeping, but it's terrifying to be walking around in the dark. The truth is that if you don't have a guide and you don't know the future, you actually are in the dark when it comes to making decisions.
Fortunately we have a guide, the Bible, the Word of God.
As it says in Psalms 119:105
"Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path."
God's word gives us a foundation. It provides us reference points for evaluating and judging choices - providing practical advice in hundreds of areas. It helps you discern danger, position yourself for success and evaluate your life's direction
God has always been in the light business.
In fact the first record of his words are "Let there be light" in Genesis 1:3. If you look a little closer you'll also find the light described as a person, his Son Jesus Christ.
"I have come as Light into the world, so that everyone who believes in Me will not remain in darkness". John 12:46
