"John was a lamp that burned and gave light, and you chose for a time to enjoy his light. “I have testimony weightier than that of John. For the works that the Father has given me to finish—the very works that I am doing—testify that the Father has sent me."

John 5:35-36

Jesus is the true light of the world. We must run to Him and then we will have the light of life (John 8:12). Otherwise, you have chosen to remain in darkness.

‘Faith is not a question of shutting our eyes … It is a leap, but a leap into the light and not a leap into the dark' (J Polkinghorne, Serious Talk (Trinity Press, 1995).

Closing Prayer

Lord Jesus, increase my faith in the miracle that is the gospel. Help me to live a life of expectancy, looking to the truth it holds to change lives, now and for eternity (edited from Encounter with God).
