There is a heaviness that feels like darkness. Jesus says in the passage above that when we follow Him we will not walk in that darkness but will have the Light of life. When you walk into a dark room and turn on the light the darkness is chased out and is sent cowering to the corners. Walking in the Light has that same effect on the kingdom of darkness, so go walk in the Light today and send the enemy cowering!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThe light came into the darkness, and the darkness did not understand it, but it no longer mattered because the light was now obliteration the darkness.\u201d  -Ted Dekker<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">\u201cThere are two ways of spreading light: to be the candle, or the mirror that reflects it.\u201d  -Edith Wharton<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Dad Joke of the Day:<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A chicken crossed the road and met James Bond.
