Letter Twenty Seven

It has been almost a month without blogging. I am not sure what that means in regards to how my summer has been going, but I am feeling the need for words and reading and writing and expression. 

I read most recently through all of 1 John during a morning of devotion and as per usual came upon a verse that spoke to me.

"God is light; in Him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with Him, yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live out the truth. But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another..." 

...To walk in the light...

Over the past year I have truly understood what it is to surrender all things to the Lord and to walk in His light. I have felt sadness and heartache, and yet remained full of joy from the Lord. Never has my heart been so full of both things. This verse speaks to me because it reminds me of God's faithfulness and how He has taken such amazing care of my heart this past year. I have never felt so free and light and it is all because of His grace and love.

Here's to living and walking in the light! (lifts glass of orange juice)
