Light Writes

Hi, I’m “Light”. Welcome to “ Light Writes ”! I am sharing this journal entry for a love-filled blessing of God to come upon you and many others and for the advancement of the Church, i.e. the Bride of Christ. I pray that you gain wisdom and insight from it and are able to apply it to yourself and your own life.  :) The Entry I am a fountain. I am a fruit-bearing tree. It is necessary that I learn to differentiate between who I serve and those with whom I am meant to have a friendship.  On one hand, those I serve are purposed only to take of my fruit and drink of my water (which is a good thing— they are thirsty, hungry, and thus purposed and systematically positioned by God to be benefactors of my compassion and love for however many seasons they require and He wills). On the other hand, close friends, as embodying representations of God, give to me in seasons I am bearing no fruit— they feed when I am hungry and pour when I am thirsty, that I may be strong and encouraged in ...

Dear Mommy/Daddy: Give yourself grace for not being able to give your children what you would like to.  You’d love to give to your children because you deeply desire for them to be provided for, emotionally healthy and whole.  However, you can’t give what you don’t have.  You're only able to give them what you do have. You’re unable to give your children anything if you have nothing yet, or have not yet born within yourself what you’d like to give.  It’s not that you won’t or don’t give them grace or love or financial comfortability— it’s simply that you’re unable because of present issues you’re facing birthed by your past.  You are not  to blame. Give yourself grace. If you want to invest in your children, whom I know you love, and raise them to be whole in soul, intentionally invest in you .  You won’t be able love them with all of you until you become willing to abide in a place of vulnerability, a requirement of healing. Though it is impossible ...

I believe that what we have termed 'Christianity', that is true Christianity-- Christlikeness is, in reality, humanity, an uncorrupted humanity, and the ideal and peak of its existence; that humanity, uncorrupted, is demonstrated in acknowledgement of God as Creator, and His exaltation.  To me, dependency on God is as human as the anatomy of homosapiens that He, in His omniscience, calculatively formed; as human as His image of justice, compassion and forgiveness within us and, colossaly regrettably by mankind throughout time, the carnal nature. It is a shame that our minds are darkened; that we now seek truth beyond the truth. The truth is simple and foundational, and yet we seek to create and discover a new universe of complexities detached from the truth, the truth that 'is', and is Christ. That is, unless we decide to believe the truth that the simple truth has been made clear to us: Creation is proof of a creator; the sky was not crafted by human hands, nor did exi...

Hi Love.  Welcome to “Light Writes”! “May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully.  Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.” — Ephesians 3:19 We can never fully understand God’s love (Eph. 3:19).  Nonetheless, we can seek and appreciate the understanding we do gain of it. A reflection of God’s love is demonstrated in the way He uses His sovereignty. He is able to do anything; to give you a desire to move in His Will without your consciousness of it, to shift anything into position, to bring two people into alignment, and yet He moves and shifts with grace and peace. His will and purpose prevail, and are unavoidable. This is apart of what characterizes His sovereignty. He is able to do anything but exist as one He is not.   God wills good, and causes only good.  How can we trust that the bad that happens is not caused by God? By trusting His character; His holiness, th...

Hello, I’m Light . Welcome to— Many Christians are mentally in bondage, avoiding sinning solely out of a fear of judgement and eternal damnation. Accepting our freedom, we have yet to. I suppose it is because we are of the belief that this is the intent of God.  Upon pondering this and considering the nature and character of God as love, I have resolved that I do not believe that the aforementioned is God's desire or intent for those who follow Him. A loving God, I reckon, would invite us to obey after having found sound reason for and benefit in obedience rather than merely in fleeing from a source of fear like wrath. (Wrath has already been poured out on Christ; there is none now to be received for those who believe in Him). Don’t you reckon so, too? Instead of being slaves in ignorance, our loving God invites us to be of the mindset of following and avoiding sin with reason and understanding.   When we understand why an action is good or bad, we live freely, and are bett...
