Walk in Light

For you were once darkness, but now you are (A)light in the Lord. Walk as children of light (for (B)the fruit of the [a]Spirit is in all goodness, righteousness, and truth), 10 (C)finding out what is acceptable to the Lord. 11 And have (D)no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather [b]expose them. 12 (E)For it is shameful even to speak of those things which are done by them in secret. 13 But (F)all things that are [c]exposed are made manifest by the light, for whatever makes manifest is light. 14 Therefore He says:

(G)“Awake, you who sleep,
Arise from the dead,
And Christ will give you light.”

“Wake up, sleeper,(H)
    rise from the dead,(I)
    and Christ will shine on you.”(J)
