In the Bible, light is connected to knowledge, truth, revelation, and love. The Old Testament prophesies that an ultimate light will come into the world. The New Testament records Jesus saying, “I am the light of the world.” And then in a stunning proclamation, Jesus says to Christians; “You are the light of the world.” This is a lot to unpack! And we will this Sunday. In the meantime, I pray you would be encouraged by this reality - you are light! I pray it would affirm your great purpose in this world - to be light! And I pray you are built up in Jesus regularly - you are light to others!
May God give us a Sunday full of encouragement, truth, love and worship this Sunday. Let’s gather together with the intent of worshipping God while encouraging one another!
“You are the light of the world...” - Matthew 5:14a
