I awaken several days a week at 5:00am for prayer at the church. When we leave the house at 5:30 it is still dark outside. Before the 20-minute ride to the church is over the first light of day is breaking through and I can see the hills, though dimly. When prayer is over and we head back home about seven full light has come. The brightness continues to increase until it reaches a zenith.
 
In the Scripture above God is telling the righteous that though you may start off in darkness, your life will continue to get brighter and brighter. In other words the promise of God is that as long as you are walking with Him, your life will get better and better. Your life is destined to improve! It has to improve! God has decreed it! And, everything must obey God! The same God who said, "Let there be light," said that your life would get brighter and brighter. So, it has to be, as long as you are living a righteous life. God has even commanded that all things will work together for your good!
 
I am 58 years old now and my life is far better than it was when I was 18, 28, 38, or 48. If I could press a button and go back to those years, I wouldn't. Not only is my life better, but I am better.
 
No one loses by giving his or her life to the Lord Jesus Christ.
