“But everything exposed by the light becomes visible—and everything that is illuminated becomes a light. This is why it is said: “Wake up, sleeper, rise from the dead, and Christ will shine on you.”” Ephesians‬ ‭5:13-14‬ ‭NIV‬‬

In yesterday’s post I encouraged you to look for the goodness of God. Did you see? Did you find God’s goodness? I did! I saw God’s grace and mercy filling my faith up all day long!

When I left home to head to work, I was amazed at the songs I heard on the Christian radio station. Were they picked just for me or was I listening with more open ears? I had a jam packed schedule at work, but God’s grace and mercy gave me the strength and stamina to meet my needs. Several texts and conversations throughout the day reported of answered prayers of mine, family members or friends. Go God! God continually showed off yesterday.

However, when talking with my friend last night of an answered prayer, I had an “aha” revelation. I think God is constantly answering prayers, performing miracles, bestowing blessings and showing off. I think that we are not always looking. I think we are often asleep and in the dark.

You and I rush through life from one task to the other. We are constantly looking to the next big thing while God is constantly working for our good. Let’s make today a Faith-Filled Friday. Let’s turn on the light and be awake to God’s constant work in our lives. Let’s allow Christ to shine on us and fill up our faith for His glory.
