I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light so that you can understand the confident hope he has given to those he called—his holy people who are his rich and glorious inheritance.

Ephesians 1:18

I pray that your hearts will be flooded with light

I turn towards You, Lord.
I open up my heart and ask for Your light to warm my cold soul.
I know I can’t see the cobwebs clinging to the corners or the dirt in the crevices of my heart without Your glow.
I know I am empty, void of love for others…and for You.
Only when Your light beams inside me, purifying my soul, will I be able to reflect Your love to others.
Your light illuminates where I need to go.
Your radiance invites me to rest in Your arms and snuggle close to You.
What a powerful image this is:
not to be lost in darkness,
not just to have a glimpse of You
but to be flooded in Your light.
To be so saturated in Your brightness that all shadows disappear and I know Your way is the only way.
To stand with arms outstretched in the deluge of divine fire.
To know You.
You are God.
The only true light.
Flood me with Your light, Lord.
