John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
God didn’t send His Son into the midst of a great spiritual revival. He sent Him to those who were floundering around in darkness.
Many saw the light of Jesus and were led out of darkness in that day.
The good news is that we don’t have to stumble around in the darkness.
Do you remember the day the Light of God shined into the darkness of your life — what it was like to see yourself as you really were and know that God offered you light, hope and life?
In the Bible we have the tools and the help we need to walk in the light day by day. That’s the place of greatest blessing, That’s joy.
1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.
“Joy to the world, the Lord has come — Let earth receive her King — Let every heart prepare Him room — And heaven and nature sing, and heaven and nature sing — And heaven and heaven and nature sing.”
George F. Handel
