No light without the Power Source

On Thursday Dec 16, 2010  my friend Amy took her bike out for an evening ride around the block.  As she was riding she was surprised by the flashing lights of a police cruiser.  Seems there is a law that bike riders must have a light on their bike. No problem..Amy has a light...oops, battery needs replacing. Who knew?

Amy is a very special young woman.  I think she was 17 when I met her for the frst time working in our church office and was taken with the glow that shines from her beautiful face.  I soon discovered that Jesus is the power within her that shines through everything she says and does.  He keeps her on the right path and alerts her to dangers as she walks with Him.
As I saw the parallels between her bike's light and her life's light I noted that both needed a source of power to create light.

In the case of Amy's bike, the source of power is a battery which eventually will stop providing light...it will lose its charge.
Amy's decision to give her heart to Christ is a once in a lifetime choice.  He is with her, at the ready, to provide blazing beautiful light wherever and whenever she needs it.  His power never ebbs away.

What about you dear reader?  Have you decided to follow Jesus?

 Is He your power source?

It's my prayer.
