John 8:12 (NKJV)
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."
In the scriptures preceding a young woman caught in adultery is brought before Jesus for judgment, to be stoned; but rather than pass judgment, Jesus directs His attention to the accusers and makes this statement, "He who is without sin among you, let him throw a stone at her first." And of course the accusers back away.
All too often we do the same thing, judge someone because of their circumstance or judge someone because of their appearance; the truth is there is no circumstance of life so horrible that can not be overcome in the strength of Jesus and there is no sin so grievous that can not be washed clean by the blood of Jesus.
With Jesus positive life change is not only possible for us but it is probable and is His greatest joy.
Colossians 1:13 & 14 (NKJV)
He has delivered us from the power of darkness and conveyed us into the kingdom of the Son of His love, in whom we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins.
The forces of evil are impotent wimps, defeated foes in the face of our Risen Lord and Savior Jesus Christ, make the choice today, make Jesus the Light of your life and let His Light shine through you into the darkness of the world.
Abba Father we can not praise You enough for giving us Jesus, the Light of the world, may His light always be visible in us as we journey through life here on earth; it is in the name of our Lord and our Savior Christ Jesus that we pray. Amen.
