* It's good to suffer loss, for it draws me to the Cross where God's loss is more than what anyone ever lost. * We cannot hear what the stories of the Bible are saying until we hear them as stories about ourselves. * Let go of control. * Trust God. Thank God. Think about God. Talk to God. Talk about God.

Walk in Light of the Lord (Isaiah 2:5)

What does it mean to walk (live) in the light of the Lord (Isa 2:5)?
  1. Be honest with yourself. This happens when we see ourselves in light of who God is (Isa 6:3; Lk 5:8).
  2. Live a holy life because God is holy (Isa 1:4; 6:3, 5; Gen 17:1; Eph 1:4; Lev 11:44; 1 Pet 1:16).
  3. Live by the word of God (Ps 119:105, 97; 1:2; Jn 6:63).
  4. Live with no hint of darkness (Jn 8:12; 1 Jn 1:5).
  5. Trust God "alone" (Isa 2:11, 17) not man (Isa 2:22).
  6. Act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with our God (Mic 6:8).
  7. Clean out your heart; clean up your life; care for the fatherless and the widows (Isa 1:16-17).
  8. Have a clearly defined goal of life (Phil 3:14; Ac 20:24) as our practical expressing of seeking God and loving God and exalting God alone (Isa 2:11, 17).
