We'll Leave The Light On For You - Conculsion

As most of you know, Motel 6 is famous for the slogan “We’ll Leave The Light On For You.” It was a huge advertising campaign and still sticks in the heads of many of us today. So, why do I use this saying at the conclusion of this series today?

Well, if you are plugged in, as we talked about the first week, and if you have found the light and are living in it, you are then living the life that God has set for you. But, what happens when someone falls away from God? What happens if your family member decides to walk out of the light and back into the darkness?

First off, that light has dimmed – but most of the time it hasn’t been extinguished. The information is there in his or her head, but they are choosing to leave the light. The world that we live in is so tempting that many will choose it over God for so many reasons.

These people are temporarily lost, but they are not forgotten. God will not forget them, and He won’t let you either. They will continue to be on your heart and you will continue to be given opportunities to shine back into their lives. This is a trial in this person’s life that will hopefully allow them to speak into the lives of others later on in life. We’ve all been lost at one point and have found our way to Him.

Continue to pray for those who are in the darkness. Continue to shine your light into their lives. Let them know that God wants to renew the relationship with them and that they are special to Him. Let the know that the light can be plugged back in and start shining again.
