Light

There’s a reason we love the candlelight services on Christmas Eve. When everything goes dark, we are reminded of how much we need light. Of how much darkness there was before Jesus came. Of how much He is the Light of the World.

We then light one candle, and then pass on the light, one by one, to each church member, until everyone is holding the light, as we sing. Slowly the light spreads, the hope moves, the joy is evident. He’s here! He’s here! The Light of the World has come to be with us, to put all of our burdens and sins upon Himself, to remove the barrier between us and God! He is the only hope and THIS is what we celebrate! The Great Light has come! Amen!

Again Jesus spoke to them, saying, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” - John 8:12

Thank you for joining us these last 12 days! I hope your advent season was richer in some way because of our time reflecting on one word at a time. Merry Christmas to you and yours!!!
