"There came a man who was sent from God: his name was john. He came as a witness to testify concerning that light, so thaty through him all men might believe. He himself was not the light; he came only as a witness to the light." --John 1:6-8

Are we "living as Children of Light" in this world of 2009? We need to reconized that we are only human, that we are still learning regaurdless of our age from the youngest to the oldest.... In this Ephesians mini series, is helping us answer, the BIG question, by Discovering Our Purpose of whats in our life (or what is missing?)... We are trying to understand that purpose that God has already given us.
(vv.20-24) Did we put on our new self?? >> Lets face it, we are new to this purpose, this relationship that God wants us to have... we just need to make the move to Him because he is ALWAYS ready... But we can still fall short of this relationship, just like husband & wife; boyfriend & girlfriend, we are humans that can get caught up in temptations becoming week in areas of our life... We can keep our new self in focus by coming to the father, to help put on the armor to defeat temptations (Galatians 5:16-17)
(vv.26-2
Are your actions shining the light or covering the light? >> Yes, anger can be a powerful emotion, both good and bad... We just need to control it NOT it controling us in our life... This is what the devil us to get into are hearts and stir up the spirit with sin... The world is watching us seeing if they can push their values into our hearts redefining us changing that spirit from within us....
(vv.30-32) Are we growing within our relationship? >> Sometimes we need to clean house now and than... we need to just see what clutter is in our life, that may becoming a impact on our realationship with God... We just need to remember what Christ has given us, and did in our life ALL because he loves us so much....
Are we ready to declutter our life, to make for our Savior Jesus Christ?
