John 8:12
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
Along the village streets twinkling wreaths hang
from the light poles. The new trees in the medians are decked with strings of
multi-colored beauty. Greenery twined with lights drapes along the concrete
bridge. I get to see this beautiful sight every morning on my way to work. The
other night Tim and I took a spin around the neighborhood to look at Christmas
lights. Some homes looked like gingerbread houses. Sparkling trees peeked
through the windows.
Every light I see reminds me of why we celebrate Christmas. The true light of the world came as a baby and grew into the man who
would sacrifice his life so I might have grace. I love what Jesus said to the
people, "Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."
Even when circumstances bring despair and gloom, I have Jesus' light inside me.
He guides my path with his light. Praise God for light!
