One Light
The fluorescent light blazes through my eye lids as I try to sleep. I hear the familiar scrape of metal as my husband slides the top lock on our front door. Then his feet make a THUD, THUD, THUD sound as he pads off to lock the back door. I think to myself, “Our house is so small the one light in the hall is enough for him to see both doors.” He can even see at the other end of the house to check on our children.
“What’s it like in a big house? Can one light still do that?” I think. I’m so grateful to be close to Jesus. His one light shines in my whole life and every chamber of my heart. That is, except when I get full of myself with a big ego, big plans, and big burdens.
Lord, let the unfolding of your words give me light and understanding. (Psalm 119:130)
SWITCH.
“Good night.”
