John 1:5-9
The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not overcome it. There was a man sent from God, whose name was John. He came as a witness to testify to the light, so that all might believe through him. He himself was not the light, but he came to testify to the light. The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world.
There are many references to the” light” in the Bible. What does it mean to or for you? As a child many of us were afraid of the dark and had a night light to ward off the darkness. Now as an adult the “light” comes in our belief in Jesus the one John was preparing the way for us of his coming. With Jesus in our hearts we no longer need to be afraid of the darkness as he is the “light” that God promised to all of us. Remember that your “light is shining brightly” for Jesus will always be there to keep the darkness away.
