Grace, Hope & Peace, Friend;

Although it is not always the case, we often take pride when we see our children imitating us.

After urging us to live the way Jesus called us to live, (Ephesians 4:1-3) Paul wrote that, in the same way children mimic their parents, we should imitate God. "And walk in love, just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God as a fragrant aroma." (Ephesians 5:1-2)

You were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord; walk as children of light (for the fruit of the light consists in all goodness, righteousness, and truth).
	Ephesians 5:8-9

In another letter, Paul wrote, "God, who said, 'Light shall shine out of darkness,' is the One who has shone in our hearts to give the Light of the knowledge of the glory of God in the face of Christ." (2 Corinthians 4:6)

God, who has adopted us as His children, has given us His light - His Spirit - to guide us so we can know what makes Him happy.

Walk as children of light.

Yeshua, Ohr HaOlam - Jesus, Light of the World - Help me walk in Your light.

All things become visible when they are exposed by the light, for everything that becomes visible is light.
	Ephesians 5:13

Walk in His light,
