The Light Around Us
I’m going to tell you about this man; I'll call him Cham and the touch
he felt from God. It's pretty remarkable, AND it's true. O.K, it started out
this way; his wife needed to get to work and she asked him to pick up a loaf of
bread and some other
things. Pretty basic, eh?
Only problem is he got distracted, and ended up in the beer parlor and the
money ended up in the wrong cash register. Needless to say, the wife was
pretty disappointed, but a week later the same thing happened again, or rather
was about to happen. He was pretty busy having a good time with his friends,
same time, same location, sort of thing, when he needed to visit
the restroom. Now things got pretty interesting: when he walked out he
looked out and lo and behold a light was shining all around him. I don't think
he paid too much attention to it at first but went to join his companions, and
they were gone! He asked the waitress about them, and all she could say was
that they had upped and left. Well, he decided to go searching, but couldn't
find them, but he did notice that the light was still surrounding him so
decided to let it lead him. Cham followed the light in that otherwise dark
night, and it lead him up to a narrow river which he decided to cross although
it came up to his waist, then later across another river until it eventually
lead him back home.
I believe this experience left a deep impression on Cham. He didn't
always follow the Light, (God's light) as closely as He should, but he tried
and God was able to bring him out of his ignorance and darkness to a closer
walk with Him. He can do the same for you. Just follow the little light you
have, pray and He will lead you, us one step at a time. When we look back, we
will often recognise how He lead us better than we can at the moment.
