The Light Leading Us Home
Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." - John 8:12
In today's devotional, Kim describes the light as "Jesus making a bold and beautiful declaration about what's veiled behind the darkness—and more importantly, about his own ability and willingness to get us there."
Dear Church, as we reflect during this Advent season, let us remember to worship our Lord Jesus Christ, thanking Him for the gift of eternal life and trusting in Him in all circumstances. May His light shine upon you today as you seek Him.
Reflect on John 8:12. Optional: Also read John 9:5 and 12:46.
What do you imagine Jesus' first hearers thought or wondered when Jesus said this?
How does the context of the Feast of Tabernacles enrich your understanding of his claim?
