“ When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”” John 8:12 (NIV)
We see a lot of lights around us these days and we can let them remind us of what happened when Jesus was born. The light which the shepherds saw and the star which the wise men saw were also reminder of the real meaning of His coming. Today's verse from the Gospel of John explains the real meaning in what Jesus said of Himself. There is so much darkness in this world and this has always been true. God sent His Son to bring us light. We have the promise of Jesus that if we follow Him we will not be walking in the darkness. As we see lights at Christmas time, let them remind us how Jesus lights up things for us. And let's be sure to follow our Savior closely. If things sometimes look dark for us, let's come closer to Him.
