Light

 Leave the Darkness Behind

Remember to share with the girls:

Think back to Genesis 1 when God created the world. One of the first things God said was, “Let there be light” (Genesis 1:3). Just like God created light to shine upon the earth, Jesus came as a light to all mankind.

In John 8:12, Jesus says, "I am the light of the world..." He also points out that light is necessary for finding our way in this world. 

Jesus is the light that guides men and women into true life. He's the light that illuminates our path, as well as the one who illuminates the rest of the world. It is by Jesus’ light that we can clearly discern what is right and good.

The picture of light in the darkness is significant. It means vision instead of blindness, confidence instead of confusion, hope instead of despair.

If you're feeling lost, disoriented, or stuck in the dark, start by saying His name: Jesus. Then, take a step—asking Him to light up the darkness. And as you continue to follow Him, one step at a time, He will show you the way.

Take a moment to thank God for shining His light in your life. Because of Jesus, you can leave the darkness behind and experience the light that leads to life.
