Your Light Has Come!

Your Light Has Come!
What an encouragement this morning as things in our country and our world seem to get darker and darker by the hour.

If you’re in Christ, YOUR LIGHT, the light of the world (John 8:12), has come.

“…but if we walk in the Light as He Himself is in the Light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus His Son cleanses us from all sin.”    1 John 1:7
Let’s make sure our light (which is His light) is piercing the darkness and not letting the darkness overwhelm us.

Be in the Word!  

Be fellowship with fellow light-bearers!

Stay away from the darkness available in every type of media you can access.  Is your podcast, favorite show or movie, music light-filled/

Look on those who live in darkness with pity and grace and begin shining your light specifically in their direction, showing your care for them, rather than your angst at the darkness they don’t even recognize.

How are you making sure your light shines today?







Meet Beth

 
Beth was blessed to be raised by parents who taught their children to love the Lord.  She trusted in Christ for salvation and followed in believer’s baptism when she was eight years old.  

Beth thanks the Lord for leading her parents to First Baptist Church in Jefferson City, Missouri, where the youth choir practiced and sang in the 8:15 am Sunday service each week.   This was great preparation for understanding the joy and the responsibility of serving Christ’s church.

Throughout her adult life, Beth has served in many roles across various church ministries – most of them while working full-time.  Her favorite roles involve discipling women by studying and teaching the Bible and its power for our lives.  

She has taught an adult Sunday School class on Sunday mornings since 2010.  In addition, since 2021, she has enjoyed writing and teaching two Women’s Bible studies each year.  She also blogs at bethipock.com about discipleship and daily Christian living. She recently had an article published at thegospelcoalition.org.

Other church roles include co-directing VBS, singing in the choir, chairing the personnel committee, and filling in at the piano when needed.

Beth and her husband, Ellis, have five grown children, three daughters-in-love, 16 grandchildren, and one great-grandchild.
