Chapter 32
What is light? In the past, you actually regarded the transformation of the work of the Holy Spirit as light. There is true light at all times: that is, gaining what God is through drawing near to Me and fellowshipping with Me. Having insight into God’s words and grasping God’s intentions in His words—that is, while eating and drinking them, feeling the Spirit in God’s words and receiving God’s words inside yourselves; you grasp what He is through experience, and receive God’s illumination while communing with Him; all is light. You can be enlightened and gain new insight in God’s words at any moment while contemplating and pondering. If you grasp God’s word and you feel new light, then will you not have power in your service? You worry so much while you give service! That is because you have not touched reality, and you do not have true experience or insight. If you had true insight, then would you not know how to serve? When certain things befall you, you must experience them diligently. If, in an easy and comfortable environment, you can also live in the light of God’s countenance, then you will see God’s face every day. If you saw God’s face and communicated with God, would you not have light? You do not enter into reality, and you are always on the outside, searching; as a result, you find nothing and your progress in life is delayed.
Do not focus on the outside; instead, just draw near to God within, commune deeply enough and grasp God’s intentions; would you not then have a path in your service? You need to diligently pay attention and obey. If you do all things only according to My words and enter the paths that I point out, then would you not have a path? If you find the path to enter into reality, then you also have a path to serve God. It is simple! Come to God’s presence more, ponder God’s words more, and you will obtain that which you lack. You will also have new insight, new enlightenment, and you will have the light.
