Imagination

PathLight

When I was a little boy, I was blessed with a vivid imagination. I guess most kids are. I could be a cowboy, a soldier, a fireman; all in the same day whatever I wanted to be. And it was my imagination that made it all real. A stick with a rope tied to it became a horse and two old boards nailed together with a rusty nail became an airplane. Of course, as you grow older, if you are not careful, your imagination can turn into lustful fantasies or other sinful things.

When I became a Christian, I would learn that in my fight to advance the Kingdom, in my struggle to serve Christ, and in my battle against temptation, I also needed to visualize success. I needed imagination. Imagination gave me a picture for my faith to hold on to.

In today’s edition of PathLight, we will learn that imagination, when rightly used, is one of the most powerful tools God gives us to put off the old nature and to walk in the new. Please join Dr. T. D. Worthington for his message entitled “Imagination.”
