In the same way, Jesus and God’s word are to be OUR light. Everything in our world and every decisions we make should be colored and influenced by that light. Especially now, our culture for our young people is trying to influence and change the lighting that makes their decisions. Pray for our teens, and pray for our parents as they make decisions for our teens. Pray as we help to show out teens God’s light, and help them to make their own decisions based on that light!
