Things Become Scary In The Dark That Shouldn't Be...

Wow...today was definitely one of those WOW days at church. Currently Rob is doing a series on Easter, and this week was on how light shines in the darkness.

There is so much I could say...but time is limited for me now...and yes I can hear a few of those hallelujahs from across the miles :).

My encouragement would be if you have a moment, check it out (well not literally today, it may take a couple of days for it to be put on the website):

Look for today's date 04.06.08, and probably the title Easter Sunday - Open hearts Pt 3. It will be well worth the time you invest to listen to it.

He mentioned how there are 400 verses which reference light & darkness. Here is the list of verses he shared with us today:

1. Genesis 1:1-4
2. Job 12:22
3. Psalm 18:28
4. Psalm 19:7-8
5. Psalm 27:1 (NKJV)...{I was not paying attention before this verse to the translation...silly me}
6. Psalm 90:8 (NIV)
7. Psalm 119:105 (NIV)
8. Proverbs 6:23 (NIV)
9. Matthew 6:22-23 (NIV)
10. I John 1:1-5 (NIV)
11. John 3:16-21 (NIV)
12. John 8:12 (NIV)
13. John 12:46 (NIV)
14. II Corninthians 4:4-6 (NIV)
15. I John 1:5-7 (NIV)
16. I John 2:9 (NIV)
17. Colossians 1:12-14 (NIV)
18. Ephesians 5:8 (NIV)

As he was sharing Psalm 27:1, he talked about how he gets "creeped" out at night when he goes to his garage. It does not affect him at all during the day, he doesn't even think about it twice. But for some reason at night he gets "creeped" out just a bit. Then he said something to the effect of things become scary in the dark that shouldn't be scary - it really hit home for me (hence the title).

Well there is much more I would love to add, but can't at this point...and maybe those things were for me???
