A Beckoning Candle
« on: April 16, 2010, 11:03:25 AM »
John 3:19-21 (New International Version)
19This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. 21But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God.

I am a music lover! Just about any type with the exception of Rap.
One of my favorite songs is by Elvis Presley "If I could Dream" The last verse goes like this....

Deep in my heart there's a trembling question
Still i am sure that the answer gonna come somehow
Out there in the dark, there's a beckoning candle
And while i can think, while i can talk
While i can stand, while i can walk
While i can dream, please let my dream
Come true, right now
Let it come true right now


The song is is a powerful testament to mans ability to dream. While dreams differ I believe the that "trembling question" in each of our hearts is the same. To find that light in the distance that beckons each of us in this dark world. We have but one life. Dream! Dream Big! But, choose that dream to be fulfilled by Christ as only he can. I wonder, Are you still searching for that light in the distance that calls your name?

Rom 1:17 For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith.
