John 8:12 (NKJV) 12 Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.”
His light is perfect. It shines brightly. We cannot miss it if we are paying attention.
I remember as a little girl, my Dad and Mom sent us to Sunday school every week. They would meet us there for Church and then we would meet at home afterward for a big Sunday dinner!
We were a large family. Eleven of us all together at the dinner table. We practically had our own parties!
My Dad would usually make the Sunday dinner and my Mom would assist him. When we sat down, there was always a big bowl of mashed potatoes, a meat of some type, some vegetables and BREAD!
The bread was there in case we were still hungry, even after eating a plateful of the other food. We didn’t usually have many leftovers.
We learned from my parents how to care for a family. We saw the sacrifices they made at times for us children, and when the tough times came, how to get through them.
They always had faith in their good Lord to get us through whatever we faced.
He was their Light, and He became ours as we grew and watched them follow Him. Was our family perfect? Nope.
There is darkness in this world; evil, temptation, pain and hardness all around us.
But as we continue to follow Him, we will live in the Light and life will be good, because He is good!
