Light

God is all about light, isn't He? I mean the first thing He did after creating the universe was shed light on it. From all eternity, His plan was to shed Light in the hearts of humanity.

And don't we always tell people, "things will look better in the morning?" Obviously God knew the truth of that long before we came up with the cliche.' ...Weeping may endure for a night, but joy comes in the morning. (Psalm 30:5) Light gives us a better outlook and perspective. We see more clearly in the light, figuratively as well as actually.

Of course, spiritually speaking, darkness is associated with evil and wickedness. Light is truth and goodness - Light is Christ. We are healed and cleansed when our sin is brought out of the darkness, the secret place, into the Light. (Luke 8:17) There is hope in the Light. There is life in the Light.

You are the Light - Bethlehem's Son
Hope of the world, glorious One
The Savior of all is with us tonight
You are the Light

Now the whole world will not be the same
Love has come down, grace has a name
The name of the child is Jesus Christ
You are the Light You are the Light!
