Illuminating Life Lessons: Focusing On God

Through more than seven decades, God has been teaching me life lessons. Many of these life lessons came as a simple thought, a statement I heard or read, or something I experienced. Some lessons were taught through nature, some through relationships, others through the Bible. Some lessons came easily and were quickly understood. Others required that I walk through pain, sometimes briefly, some for many years, while others are ongoing. I find joy in digging deep to explore exactly what God is saying to me - what He is teaching me. Each life lesson has challenged me and changed me. They have equipped me to know God in deeper more intimate ways. It is though a light has pierced the darkness bringing illumination to my heart and mind. I am able to see God in new and wonderful ways. As I experience each lesson, I begin to see God's work in my life - His specific work, personal and productive, designed to draw me closer to Him, to know Him more, trust Him more. Each lesson is purposeful, designed accomplish His desire for me. That is to enjoy a relationship with God, to see His glory and experience His peace. The reason I share these life lessons with you is to give you food for thought and to bring glory to God. Perhaps what God has taught me will illuminate your heart and mind to see the God who loves you and cares about you more than you could ever comprehend. My prayer is that you will experience that peace, joy and awe that comes as you experience the illuminating life lessons God has for you. For God, who said, "Let there be light in the darkness," has made this light shine in our hearts so we could know the glory of God that is seen in the face of Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians 4:6 (NLT)
