Friday's Challenge on Posted by Rebekah

Every Friday @ 12:30pm (CST), you can hear a weekly challenge from me on Faith Music Radio.  My podcast is called Posted by Rebekah. You can listen online HERE or download the free app for your smartphone.  I would love for you to join us, listen and take the challenge!
Tune in any time of the day to Faith Music Radio for uplifting Christian music and talk. 

Here is today's podcast in blog post form. :)


Living in a hotel has its interesting scenarios.

Like trying to be kind to your sleeping husband and not wake him up by turning on the light.

My solution?  Take a shower by the flashlight on my phone.  

It wouldn't have been too bad...if I would have put in my contacts.  Being nearly blind and the lack of proper lighting isn't a great combination!

Yet that is what we do in our lives.  We struggle through life situations in the dark of this world - never turning on the light of God that is available to us!  We go through problems and situations with our little flashlights while the light switch is right there on the wall.  We cry out to God accusing Him that He doesn't care...when all the time, you just need to turn on the light switch.  That light switch that turns on the wonderful light of the Savior into our hearts and lives.

It says in Psalms 18:28 - "For thou wilt light my candle: the Lord my God will enlighten my darkness."  
What a wonderful promise!  

Today's challenge is to turn on the light of God today in your life.  Allow Him to illuminate your darkness and you will gain the promise found in Psalms 36:9 - "For with thee is the fountain of life: in thy light shall we see light."

You May Abound In Hope

Today I completed a devotional book by Candace Cameron Bure.  100 Days of Joy and Strength.  I was struggling last night.  Darkness seemed to overwhelm me.  The last day of this devotional gave me exactly the encouragement I needed to go another day. Here are the verses she shared from God's Word. "I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits, and in His word I put my hope."  Psalm 130:5 "We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed;"  II Corinthians 4:8-9 "As for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.  Do not gloat over me, my enemy!  Though I have fallen, I will rise.  Though I sit in darkness, the Lord will be my light."  Micah 7:7-8 "I remain confident of this; I will see the goodness of the Lord in the land of the living.  Wait for the Lord; be strong and take heart and wait for the Lord."  Psalm 27
