Living in the Light

by Carson Slabaugh (Son of Pastor Mark & Deborah Slabaugh)

John 3:19 This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 

Sometimes, when I don’t get the things that I want, I get angry. And that anger affects my attitude, which leads me to trouble. When I think I’m going to get angry, I go to my room for a little bit to calm myself down. I pray for God to help me not be angry.
It is a great thing to be able to ask God to help me and then He does. I’m glad when I no longer have a bad attitude because God has helped me. God wants us to live in the light and not in darkness; and living in the light means doing good things and having a good attitude that reflects Christ to others.

Prayer: Dear Jesus, help me to control my anger and not get angry a lot. Help me to live in the light as You are in the light. Amen.
