The light of the world is Jesus, and the darkness in this world is satan. Satan’s goal is to destroy God’s children (everyone) and also to keep us in darkness. Satan is trying to kill us every day. If it was not for God’s Grace and Mercy he would succeed. If we could but get a glimpse, of the warfare going on around us between satan and God’s angels for our lives. He is the author of lies and deceitfulness. ”For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places”.] Ephesians 6:12 When we are in the light we can see clearly, but in darkness we cannot see anything. In darkness we do not know where we are going because the darkness blinded our eyes. So in order to see clearly we must walk in the light. Jesus He is our guide and He will lead us. All we have to do is follow Him and do not take our eyes off of Him. ”God is Light and in Him there is no darkness at all”. (1 John 2:6 .) May God’s Holy Spirit help us today to walk in the Light and abide in the Light. We cannot do anything by ourselves, but I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me. (Philippians 4:13) When we walk in the light there is absolutely no need for stumbling. But when, or if we should stumble we have a Saviour who is full of Grace and Mercy. Because, ”If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us [our] sins, and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness”. (1 John 1:9) Not some but ALL unrighteousness. So today let us shine for Jesus by walking in His light and the reflection of the Light/ Jesus will illuminate others. The light of the world is Jesus. Shine Jesus Shine through us and let others see you living in us. Beverley E Shaw
