Light in the Darkness June 1, 2015
I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness. John 12:46
During a trip to Peru, I visited one of the many caves found throughout that mountainous country. Our guide told us that this particular cave had already been explored to a depth of 9 milesand it went even deeper. We saw fascinating bats, nocturnal birds, and interesting rock formations. Before long, however, the darkness of the cave became unnervingalmost suffocating. I was greatly relieved when we returned to the surface and the light of day.
That experience was a stark reminder of how oppressive darkness can be and how much we need light. We live in a world made dark by sina world that has turned against its Creator. And we need the Light.
Jesus, who came to restore all of creationincluding humanityto its intended place referred to Himself as that light (John 8:12). I have come as a light into the world, He said, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness (12:46).
In Him, we not only have the light of salvation but the only light by which we can find our wayHis waythrough our worlds spiritual darkness.
How have you seen Gods light displayed in our broken world? In what ways have you shared His light?
When we walk in the Light, we wont stumble in the darkness.
:
The imagery of Jesus as light (v. 46) is the key feature of today's text, but it is also a key feature in the entire gospel of John. In fact, John uses the word light to describe Jesus twenty times, clustered into several key parts of the book: chapter 1 (six times), chapter 3 (five times), chapters 89 (three times), and chapter 12 (six times). In each instance, except for references in chapter 1, Jesus is the one speaking, using light as a self-portrait.
