Turn Toward the Light | Farm Sunday Devotional

Farm Sunday devotional graphic reading Turn Toward the Light, with John 12:36

Happy #FarmSunday friends! šŸŒž Today, we couldn’t help but notice our zinnias in their final dance, stretching, bending, and turning with all their might towards the light. It’s phototropism in all its glory – plants reaching out to the light, craving what gives them life. šŸŒøā˜€ļø

This beautiful sight reminded us of John 12:36 (MSG): As you have the light, believe in the light. Then the light will be within you, and shining through your lives. You’ll be children of light. — Just like our determined zinnias, we have the chance to reach for the light, to believe in it, and to let it transform us from the inside out.

What if we all lived like this turning, stretching, and reaching toward Christ, the light of the world, with all that we have? How amazing would that be? Let’s shine bright, live generously, and inspire others to do the same. Here’s to embracing His life-giving light and becoming children of it, in every season of our journey! 🌼✨
