Good morning Col Burroughs and all of my brothers and sisters here on VFV. The first thing that I thought of, when seeing this topic, is how our Creator God created the light to separate it from darkness. God is light and we are told that we too are supposed to be light is this sinful world. As it says in Matthew 5:15 Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. So I say, let us be the light of the world and share Jesus with all we come across. Have a blessed day, in the light, today and always.
