He wore radiant
white overalls and hat and around his waist was a large leather
workman's belt with various tools, wires, and Light bulbs of
different sizes dangling from it. He tipped his hat and with a
softness in His eyes came in with a large white ladder and put it
into the middle of the dark room. He then proceeded to climb up the
ladder and insert a small 25-watt Light bulb into the bare socket
hanging from the ceiling. He came down and folded up the ladder and
left.
I crawled
into the middle of the soft warm Light and fell asleep. The healing
Light began to restore and strengthen me. Hours later, I woke and
began to walk around the circumference of the Light. And then, I
noticed a shovel lying in the midst of the debris, so I went over
and picked it up and began to clean the area. It was a tremendous
amount of work and took days, but finally, it was clean. And then,
as the days followed, I would find myself laying on my back just
staring at the bare Light bulb dangling from the ceiling and loving
the Light. It had become my friend and comforted me.
Shedding More Light In The
Darkness Then one day, there was a knock once
again at my door, and I knew it was Him. I ran to the door, opened
it and once again it was the Electrician. He smiled at me as He came
in: I knew that He was pleased with what He saw. He carried in His
ladder and put it in the middle of the room, walked up it, took out
the smaller Light and put in a larger 100-watt Light bulb.
Instantly, the Light in the room increased. And for the first time,
I noticed a chair and couch. I quickly began to explore my new-found
space as the Electrician folded up His ladder and left.
I loved
the Light... I loved everything about the room... except... and then
I noticed the piles of garbage and dirt hidden everywhere. And then,
as I began to size up the situation, I saw a greasy film over
everything, and piles of old books, records, and souvenirs were
scattered everywhere.
I had had
such an insatiable appetite for things and more and more things, but
it never filled me. Only the Light from the Electrician filled that
void now. I knew that all of this clutter had to go so I rolled up
my sleeves and over the next several months, began to shovel, sweep
and polish. Finally, for the first time in my life, I felt that I
had a home that was mine.
How
strange it was because I had looked everywhere for it and to have
had it inside all along amazed me... but then, I had never had the
Light before.
Light Attracts
Light Then one day, there was a knock at the
door. It sounded very similar to the Electrician but I knew it
wasn't. I opened it and people who were lovers of the Light had come
to visit me.
They
loved my home and often came to visit. Then one afternoon, as we
were all sitting around talking and sharing about all the wonderful
things the Electrician had done for us, I heard a knock at my door.
The Electrician had come once again. I ran to the door and opened it
a crack. He held a large 500-watt Light bulb in His hand. My heart
screamed in silence, "Not now... No Lord... no you can't... everyone
will be watching... I don't want anymore Light today... not with
everyone here... I don't know what it will reveal." I heard the
people in my home laughing and talking in the living room behind
me.
The Lord
gently took my hand and led me out of the room into a dimly lit
hallway with many doors. He told me to open those I would like.
Cautiously, I opened the first door and was shocked as a cold evil
wind rushed out of the darkened door. I quickly shut it as it took
my breath away. The next door I opened blinded me with a brilliant
Light bulb. I saw glimpses of radiant people walking around and
their laughter was like music to my soul. The Light was too bright
and hurt my eyes, but I knew I had seen some of the Glory of the
Light. The last door I came to had a 25-watt Light bulb in it. I
recognized it, for I, too, had had that dimness, but I was shocked
at how weak the Light was. I knew I would never be satisfied with
that little Light again and couldn't go back. I was beginning to
understand that I had already gone too far into the
Light...
Many
Dark and Hidden Rooms Then the Electrician
looked at me with tender eyes of love and said, "Everyone has to
make the choice of how much of the Light they want, but there is
always a cost." "Oh Lord," I responded. "I can never turn back now,
even if everyone leaves me."
So, I
invited Him into my house. Few noticed He was even there, for they
were so busy among themselves. He put up his ladder as usual in the
middle of the room and took out the large 500-watt Light bulb and
screwed it in. As soon as the Light came on, it tripled the size of
the room. There was another couch, chair and now a dining room. Just
as I feared, garbage and dirt was piled in the once darkened
corners. Everyone responded in different ways. Many of the people
were shocked at the condition of the house and left. But a few
stayed and began to grab brooms, shovels, and mops and began to help
clean the debris. It was hard to believe that they understood, and
they accepted and loved me just as I was.
The
Electrician came over and embraced me and said, "My child, the ones
that are staying live in homes that have even greater Light than you
do. They also had others help them clean their homes, and still do.
That is part of the healing process. Many times, things have to be
cleared out that are too heavy for one person to carry out; or there
will be a stain and another person will know My solution. I made you
all to help heal and restore each other." |
