lighting up the darkness...
Candlelight atop tables... altars...
shine on faces... make them bright...
Light... a Christmas word...
And an angel of the Lord appeared to [the shepherds],
and the glory of the Lord shone around them...
Luke 2:9 ESV
God's glory... it shines like the purest light...
His light filled the shepherd's field...
a glory announcing the birth of Light... in a dark world...
In him was life, and the life was the light of men.
John 1:4 ESV
The wise men... magi... saw the star...
a light shining in the night skies...
...wise men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying,
"Where is he who has been born king of the Jews?
For we saw his star when it rose and have come to worship him."
Matthew 2:1-2 ESV
Light... makes the way for you to see where you are going...
the light of the star guided the wise men to Jesus... the King...
Light... it's what Jesus came to bring...
light to a dark world... trapped in sin...
light to find the way out... the way back to Him...
light to bring knowledge... of the glory of God...
The true light, which enlightens everyone, was coming into the world.
He was in the world, and the world was made through him,
yet the world did not know him.
John 1:9-10 ESV
Light came into the world...
but not all have eyes to see...
or hearts to receive...
But for those who do...
we become His lights...
to show others the Way...
Where do you need light in your life today...?
or to whom do you need to be light...?
Light... an Advent word... a word of Christmas...
...the people dwelling in darkness have seen a great light,
and for those dwelling in the region and shadow of death,
on them a light has dawned."
Matthew 4:16 ESV
