I Am
The
Light Of The World
One of my favorite things about Christmas is all of the Christmas lights!
Scripture
John
8
12 … “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
I
do not like the dark. Not being able to see when it is completely dark is scary
to me. One of my favorite things about Christmas (I have a lot of favorite
things about Christmas!) is all of the Christmas lights!
When
Kathy and I served as missionaries in North Africa it was a strange feeling to
travel into those Muslim countries during the Christmas season and travel
through cities that were dark and had no hint of the Savior’s birth!
Jesus
is the light of the world, but most of the world has not had the opportunity to
experience His salvation!
They
continue to live in darkness!
Application
I
will apply Matthew 5:16 and I will let my light shine during this Christmas
season! How about you?
In the same
way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and
praise your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:16
Prayer
Heavenly Father, help me be the light to those around me
by the way I live. Help me point them to Jesus. I pray for Eddie Davis and
Makayla Myers today as they get married. I pray that You bless them with a
wonderful marriage. I pray that You bring friends into their lives that will
help them grow in their faith. Use this couple to advance Your kingdom. May
Your face shine brightly on them and their future family.
I also pray for my daughter Debby today on her birthday.
Thank You for blessing Kathy and I with beautiful children that give us
wonderful grandchildren. Bless Debby today. Help her to live in a way that
brings You glory and honor. Bless her family.
