JESUS IS THE LIGHT
“I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”
JOHN 8:12
There are two paths we can walk in this world: the path of light or the path of darkness. We choose which to follow. Both paths have obstacles to overcome. Both are difficult and have their struggles. But the path of darkness is … dark. Those who follow it stumble along on their own.
The path of light, however, is illuminated by Jesus Himself. Those who follow it have Him to guide them, to help them, to travel beside them each step of the way. To choose this path is to follow Jesus—to confess that He is the Son of God and trust Him as Lord of our lives. When we choose His path, He lights our way—all the way home to heaven.
Jesus, please shine Your light into my life and lead me in the way You want me to go.
