In remembrance of a time Myself, unknowingly was formless and empty Darkness blocking out the light Consumed of worldly chaos. Then one day the light was revealed Now being able to look back in my life seeing God Was hovering around until that day Revealing the darkness that holds one captive In Christ promised spirit to set one ablaze To destroy the land one has created on their own Are received from mankinds deceitful planting In seeing this world in a whole Is everything going against God As always, only to be revealed through The quickening and manifesting of removing darkness Not of own works but through the light Seeing there is this battle within But light shines out the darkness That Christ might be the rising light into day Harvesting in the morning glory of His work Consumed of His newfound and inexpressible Joy, peace, and love for all. May , God bless, comfort, guide and fill you With His peace, love, spirit and joy in abundance. That one might be separated From, night unto a newfound day Old self unto New living being Now the earth was formless and empty, darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was hovering over the waters. And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light. God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness. God called the light “day,” and the darkness he called “night.” And there was evening, and there was morning—the first day. Genesis 1:2?-?5 NIV The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned. You have enlarged the nation and increased their joy; they rejoice before you as people rejoice at the harvest, as warriors rejoice when dividing the plunder. Isaiah 9:2?-?3 NIV The sun will no more be your light by day, nor will the brightness of the moon shine on you, for the Lord will be your everlasting light, and your God will be your glory. Isaiah 60:19 NIV Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eyes are healthy, your whole body also is full of light. But when they are unhealthy, your body also is full of darkness. See to it, then, that the light within you is not darkness. Therefore, if your whole body is full of light, and no part of it dark, it will be just as full of light as when a lamp shines its light on you.” Luke 11:34?-?36 NIV

Hi Stephan, You’re testimony of what God did for you is encouraging and inspirational. It reminds me of the lyrics to “ Amazing Grace”. Your Bible verses worked well with your heartfelt write. Like always your faith shinned bright in this write:-)Alexis

Appropriate quotes and by your chosen verses, you are as a Shepherd, bringing lost sheep home! This earth is indeed slipping into deeper and deeper darkness. Some will never see the light, some will! One soul, one day at a time. Panagiota

Once you didn't know God. But after knowing God you have come to light and you have never again slipped back into darkness. You now enjoy peace, joy and comfort and are able to share it with others. That way you are fortunate Stephan. May God help you stay in that grace."That one might be separated From, night unto a newfound day Old self unto New living being" Love these lines.

May I never boast except in the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ, through which the world has been crucified to me, and I to the world. Neither circumcision nor uncircumcision means anything; what counts is the new creation. Peace and mercy to all who follow this rule—to the Israel of God. Galatians 6:14?-?16 NIV
