JESUS OUR LIGHT
Have you ever stumbled through a dark room, or tried to walk around at night where there were no lights? Maybe you ran into a wall or hit your foot on something.
Do you remember how great it was to turn on the light so you could see where you were walking?
God's Word says that we similarly walk in darkness. Life apart from Jesus is characterized by darkness. When we try to live life by our own sight, we inevitably fail.
Jesus is the light that shines within the darkness of the world around us, and within our own lives. He illuminates the truth so that we don't have to remain captive to our old ways, but can be transformed by Jesus and His grace.

Without His light shining in the darkness, we would be lost and without hope.
Jesus is also the one who directs our paths. Just like how we stumble through darkness without a physical light, Jesus is the light that illuminates the way of life for us.
John 1:5 also tells us that the light of Jesus cannot be overcome by anything. There are no spiritual powers or world events that can overcome the light of Jesus. And there is nothing that anyone can do to separate us from the love and light of God.
Spend some time today in prayer, thanking Jesus for the salvation that you have, but also asking Him to continue to illuminate the path of life for you. Then, let the light of Jesus shine through you in the way you love those around you.
