WE CAN ONLY SEE THE LIGHT

 
John 8:12


"I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." NIV


"I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." KJV


Just about everyone understands that when there is no light in an area, it is dark and seeing is difficult if not impossible. That is an elementary concept even children understand. Why is it that many people do not understand that we need spiritual light to see what is around us and where we are going? We use the sun and artificial light without giving it a second thought. But so many try getting through life using their own limited knowledge, following close to others, or just taking risks that sound like the best option. These people are in darkness. They cannot see what they are doing, where they are, or where they are going. They need Jesus, the Light of the world.


Heavenly Father, how thankful we are that Your Son came to earth to be the Light we need to travel through this dark world. Help us to be aware that others are still stumbling around in spiritual darkness and let us be lights that shine the truth of Jesus Christ to them. In His name we pray, Amen.
