You have woken with birdsong, a crow caw, or a rooster outside your window. The new day greets you before first light. Anticipation seems built into the morning.
Dawn Breaking — “The people who walked in darkness have seen a great light; those who dwelt in a land of deep darkness, on them has light shone.” (Isaiah 9:2 ESV) Where have you experienced the hope of light breaking into your darkness?
Armor of Light — “The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness and put on the armor of light.” (Romans 13:12 ESV) How does the promise of light give you hope in dark times?
Spiritual Move: Scripture Memorization — Remembering by heart is a way to store light inside you. This daily practice of memorizing and reviewing God’s word makes it readily available for every step. “The precepts of the LORD are right, rejoicing the heart; the commandment of the LORD is pure, enlightening the eyes.” (Psalm 19:8 ESV)
