“God
is light and in Him is no darkness at all” 1 John 1:5 NKJV
If you ever watch your children or
grandchildren draw a picture they normally put in the house and grass and trees
and people and then the sun. Well, God didn’t start with the sun either, but He
did make light on the first day. Perhaps He just let His nature be revealed and
it lit up the entire universe. We know that in heaven there is no need of sun
because the glory of God is all the light that is needed. Not only do we find
that God is light, but the Scriptures also teach us that Jesus is light of the
world.
The light of God is just as needed
in our world today as it was at the beginning of creation. Today the world is
wrapped in spiritual darkness, sin and despair. Jesus calls us to be the light
of the world today. Paul calls upon us to be lights in a crooked and perverse
generation. With Christ in us we have become partakers of the Divine Nature and
can offer to the world that light which will brighten their day and their
eternal destiny.
Dear
Father, Thank You for being light and shining it into our lives that we might
be light as well. Amen.
