There are two walks through life available to all men. There is the life and walk of darkness, or the life and walk of light. There is a difference between the two, in fact our eternity is determined by which life or walk we pursue. We all at one time or another journeyed on the walk of darkness. We were all lost, a child of disobedience, and a rebeller against God. The bible tells us "All have sinned and come short of the glory of God".
We now profess to be children of the light, no longer children of the dark, so we are not to continue to walk in darkness. We are new creatures in Christ Jesus, and the walk of darkness is not pleasing to God. We must be careful not to walk in the vanity of our own minds. Thinking more highly of ourselves than we ought, having a dark understanding, blinded by the gods of this world, to the truth and power of the one true and living God. Through Jesus we have been reconciled to God, no longer the children of the dark rebelling against God. We are now through Christ, children of the light. Jesus is the light of the world and whosoever follows him shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. Christ not only shows us the light, but he made us the light. We are the light of the eternal God in the mist of a world of darkness, therefore we are to walk in His marvelous light.
When in the dark, one will follow who ever has the light, so let us walk in His beautiful light that we might lead others from the dark to the salvation of the Lord.
