The other evening we had a power cut,suddenly we found ourselves engulfed in darkness,it did not last long,thankfully. I do not want to live in darkness,no one does,without light things would not grow,our bodies would suffer,we need light,God has made us that way. It is the apostle John who mentions the subject of light ,in a spiritual dimension,he tells us that Jesus is the light of the world[ 8v12]but he tells us that men do not embrace the light , which is Jesus ,in fact he tells us that there are people who hate that light[3v20].They do not like what the light reveals about them,when Jesus challenged the religious elite, they hated Him,and were continually planning to kill Him,and in the end they did just that,they wanted to remain in there darkness,in fact strange though it may seem,they loved the darkness rather than the light[3v19].So it continues,and everyday I am praying for dear people who are suffering,by those who hate the light. Our Lord tells us that we are the light of the world.[Matthew 5v14].W. Barclay,writes,/The light is meant to be seen,so Christianity is meant to be seen/, the Christian is not part of a secret society.Our Christianity is to be seen in all our doings,driving,working,in our language,there are no exclusion zones.
A prayer,,,,,,,,/`Dear God for Jesus the light of the world we thank You, help us to shine, Amen/
