I used to think that it would be easy to be an official in football. My feeling was that you could make any call and people would not be able to tell if you were correct. After all the action is quick and so many things are happening. Ah but now there is slow motion replay from a myriad of angles. Commentators and so called experts can see exactly what occurs on the field. Incorrect calls are challenged and overturned. I no longer see football officiating as easy or desirable, for that matter.
The Bible often describes God as light. In Genesis, he created light. He is said to be unapproacable light. His Word is light to our feet. Those who trust him are lights in this world.
When we sin, we often think that no one will know. We think that our deeds will not be exposed. But the darkness of our sin is known by God. We cannot hide it from him. He brings all things into the light. Job 12:22 says, “He uncovers the deeps out of darkness and brings deep darkness to light.” We must walk in the light, just as he is light.
