John 7; John 8
I Am The Light Of The World.
If You Follow Me,
You Won’t Have To Walk In Darkness
Scripture
12 Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.”
Observation
The bright lights of our Christmas tree remind me “Jesus
is the Light of the world.” I think Kathy put about ten thousand lights on our
small skinny tree this year. I told her that it is hard to see the ornaments
because there is so much light coming off the tree!
For the past few years we didn’t have enough lights on
our Charlie Brown Christmas tree, but Kathy took care of that this year! It
looks great. Just put on your sunglasses when you walk into the living room.
(Just kidding Kathy)
Jesus is the Light of the world. We live in a very dark
world. Only the Light of Christ can make a difference and penetrate the
darkness. Christians bring light to the countries where they are sent, and even
into neighborhoods where God leads them to live.
I love Matthew 5:16, “Matthew 5:16 “… let your light
shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in
heaven.”
If you have attended a candlelight service at Christ
Fellowship then you know how special it is. I love when we light the candles
and the flame and light from each candle spreads through the crowd until every
person has received and shared the light with someone else. All you see around
you are smiles and faces reflecting the joy of Christ! Don’t miss this
experience!
Application
I
will look for opportunities to share the Light with those still in darkness.
Prayer
Heavenly
Father, thank You for the opportunity and responsibility of sharing the Light
with those around me. Help me not ever forget that those around me that don’t
know Jesus who are living in darkness that need to come to the light.
