“Don’t participate in the fruitless works of darkness, but instead expose them.” (v. 11)

Light.

In Christ, you are light.

You are not just in the light. You are not just a light.

You are light.

You once were darkness. Not just in darkness, but darkness itself. That means that, when you entered a space, things got darker—because of selfishness, because of bitterness, because of grudges and because of ego and because of unforgiveness.

But now, in Christ, you are light.

That means that, when you enter a space now, things brighten. You illuminate darkness in stark relief, and you radiate goodness in what you say and think and do. You clarify. You shine with Gospel truth. You draw others toward Jesus.

You are light now.

Live out that distinction.
