Darkness and Light .( John 3 v 35-36)

 December is a very dull month,not a lot of sunshine,but as it is December it is time  when many homes have string  of lights displayed outside their homes,I think they are great, also in most homes there are Christmas trees with lights on them. All these light displays help to chase away the gloom of this gloomy months. But of course this is the month in which we celebate the birth of Jesus, why did He have to come?,well our Saviour gives us the answer,'people loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil .Everyone  who does evil hates the light , and will not come into the light for fear that their deeds will be exposed. (John 3 v19-20) They displayed that evil in all its fulness when they took Him who is the light of the world and nailed Him to a cross,hoping to extinguish the light,so they could remain in their darkness,but they didn't succeed.We thank God for that, for it obvious that humanity needs Him who is light of the world more than ever.There are so many false religions,and false prophets who are giving birth to 'Satan's spawn'', committing the most awful evil.We may not commit awful evil,but we are still sinners,failing to embrace Him who is the light of the world our Saviour , who said the following,

                                                      ' I am the light of the world.

                                                       Whoever follows me will

                                                        never walk in darkness,but

                                                         will have the light of life'

                                                                John 8 v 12
