The World Did Not Recognize The True Light

February 18, 2013 by Church Without Shoes

GOOD NEWS 4 SEEKERS SUNDAY

John 1:9-12 The true light that gives light to every man was coming into the world. He was in the world, and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him. He came to that which was his own, but his own did not receive him. Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.

PERCEPTION // What I see/hear God saying/doing:
I hear You reminding me Lord to recognize and make room for You in the busyness of my day. You are reminding me to receive You and take hold of the words that You whisper along the way. As I do so, I will live more as the child of God that You have come to make me.

PLAN // What I am going to do about it:PLAN // What I am going to do about it:
I will take moments throughout the day to intentionally slow down, listen for Your voice, and do what You say.

PRAYER // Seal the deal:
Thank you Lord for coming to make me Yours. Please help me to not miss You along the way.
