Read 2 Samuel 23
The Promise of Dawn
3 The God of Israel
spoke, the Rock of Israel said to me: “When one rules over men in
righteousness, when he rules in the fear of God, 4 he is like the light of
morning at sunrise on a cloudless morning.”
DO you love the dawn? I do. An early dawn is one of my
favorite aspects of summer. When the dawn comes, the day begins, and I can work
in the cool light of the fresh morning. The promise of new opportunity is
before me.
God compares
himself to the light of a new day. He wants you to know that when you trust
him, his light breaks into your life to promise you a great future of new
experiences with him.
When his light shines
on you, you become a light for others. People see you, and God becomes plain to
them. People listen to you, and they hear God’s compassion, love and truth. You
light up where you walk and talk because God has “dawned” within you.
The dawn brings
promise of a new day. God has dawned in you. Shine God’s light to the world
that he will dawn in all.
A Moment’s Thought: The dawn is the sign of God’s eternal
order and promise of light forevermore.
