The Light of the World

Not a candle…

or even the orb of the sun…

 

but rather the radiation light…

 

He IS …. L I G H T

Our third week of studying how Jesus revealed Himself to us was as the Light of the World.

As I prepared for our lesson I found this word “light” is the Greek word phos.

It means to shine or make manifest especially by rays…

Our kids used to call them “Jesus Rays”…when the sun radiates down through the clouds.

When light can be almost “seen”.

Light ….

fire…

that makes things happen…

heat and warmth and energy and chemical changes…

that causes photosynthesis and growth

And this God who IS Light….

wraps Himself in it, of all things…like a garment….

who does that…who can put on LIGHT… as if it were a jacket?

And He calls us out of darkness…

and He says we are partakers of LIGHT

and that..

WE…

ARE….

LIGHTS…

That the darkness only serves to allow us to shine brighter…always reflecting…

His LIGHT.

God bless you today as you shine <3
