Getting some bread and cheese just before the shop closes and suddenly the light goes out. The power is gone. The clients are irritated, coolers and tills don’t work. So silly. No light, no purchases, no orientation. Some frantically move around their lit cell phones, but that doesn’t help either.

The bible calls people who are without a relationship with God as people who walk in darkness. The Bible calls Jesus the light of the world. Without him, the essence of life remains hidden in the dark. Even though many want to live without their creator, they live past the most important thing in life. Without Jesus, our spirit remains without light and is therefore dead.

Isaiah says in chapter 9 verse 2 prophetically: The people who walk in darkness see a great light, and on those who dwell in the land of darkness a light shines brightly.

What does it mean to you, the light that shines in the dark?
