John 8:12
"Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, "I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness but have the light of life."
___________________________________________________________
Light was created on the first day. God only needed to speak the words, and it was created. Then he said it was good. He then separated from darkness, calling the light "day" and the darkness "night". Genesis 1:3. One thing to notice is that He did not create darkness, He SEPARATED it...meaning, darkness was already at creation. When Jesus spoke these words in the Gospel of John, He declared that He is the Light of the world. All we need to do is to obey, and we will be in the light. Does this mean the light is on all the time? No, God created light - the very aspect of life that is necessary to live life! So, there will always be darkness...for a time. When God created, there was no clock to obey—no timeline to meet, no deadline to chase, no moment He was bound to attend.
Since Jesus is the light of the world, we need only to be in the light...meaning we must obey.
Prayer:
Heavenly Father,
You created light, and you gave light through your son, Jesus Christ. Help us rest in that fact, help us keep this in mind, help us be intentional as you are intentional, help us remember that JC is the light, and all we need to do is be in the light. Guide our ways with that light, strengthen us with the light (vitamin D), nourish our bodies with the light, and love us in the light.
We ask this all in your beautiful name,
Amen and Amene
As we walk, we must stay in the Light of Life.
