The other day I went to the football stadium to watch a game of my favorite team. During the game, the sun was setting and a beautiful dusk covered the sky. In the stands opposite me, I suddenly spotted a fan who had turned on the light of his smartphone in the gathering darkness. It wasn’t long before four, five, more and more lights were suddenly shining. Five minutes later, the whole stadium was sparkling like a huge sea of lights.

“I am the light of the world,” Jesus said about himself. 

Jesus is the light of the world. He wants to replace the heaviness and darkness in us. He is like that first fan who did not hide his light, but shone it brightly into the air, causing thousands of other lights to shine. 

Are you also infected by Jesus’ light?
