Your Word is a lamp to my feet and a light to my path.
—Psalm 119:105

In Your light we see light.
—Psalm 36:9

Every morning I have to let in light.

Whether is 4am or 7am, it’s all the same this time of year: It’s dark. Very dark.

Every morning I push back the covers and slowly slide myself out of bed. I always want to sleep longer. But the strength of my spirit somehow supersedes the weakness of my flesh and by God’s amazing grace I stand upright. Then I shuffle into the living room–stopping only for the necessary cup of liquid consciousness–and turn on the lamp.

Then I open The Lamp.

I can see.

The quilt wrapped around me, I let in light. True Light. God’s Word is a lamp unto our feet and a light unto our path. Jesus is the light of the World.

Every single day, first thing in the morning, I must let light into my world. We all must. Without His Light, we’re lost. We’re in darkness. Positionally we need Christ, the Light of the World, to bring His light into our hearts, awaken our spirits and make us alive to God.

But practically, we must daily turn on the Light of God’s Word, to allow us to see. Without His light, we’re lost. We’ll see the world through a distorted lens. We won’t know which way to go. We won’t have the wisdom we need for decisions. We’ll be stumbling along through life, groping in the dark each day, desperate for guidance, starving for hope.

He has given us everything we need for life and godliness.

But we must let light into our lives. Every single day.

I’m hoping many of you will join me this year as we adventure through the entire Bible in 2013. But no matter what your New Year Goals, do this: Let in light. Every single morning put the LIGHT of God’s truth into our life. Don’t stumble through 2013 groping in the dark. Don’t blindly face each day hoping good luck will be your guide.

Let in light.

Begin each day by letting in light. His truth, in some form.

Moms, daughters, sisters, friends (Yes, even men can read this book!). For the first 31 days of 2013, begin each day with a dose of His truth. Get in the habit of rising and letting in light.

  1. I was really looking forward to have this one (since I lost my chance to have the previous one, because I thought I needed a Kindle)…but I don’t see the “Available on your PC” button 🙁
