Wallpaper of the Week - John 3:16


I love caving. I love exploring the depths of the earth. It's fun and exciting and appeals to my sense of adventure.

The image above is in a cave system in Victoria, Australia. What you see is not the entrance to the caves, but a mere hole in the cave ceiling where the light is able to shine through. This is the only area in the otherwise dusty caves where there is such life.

Jesus is this life-giving light for us. If we choose not to bask in His glory, then we will wither and die. But if we do choose His light, then we will grow to be strong and vibrant.

There's a song I love and it
goes:"I want to be in the light
as You are in the light. I want
to shine like the stars in the
heavens.Oh Lord, be my light
and be my salvation. All I want
is to be in the light."
Wonderful picture to go with
your post today.
Blessings,
Sandy

Tammy, many prayers for you. It's good to look only at the light.

Karen, when I took the photo I wasn't thinking anything about this particular scripture or thoughts. Years later God spoke to me through it.

PG, awesome!!

Sandy, I know that song! It's a fantastic song. I play it regularly and very loudly. It's from DC Talk.
