John 8:12 (NIV) “When Jesus spoke again to the people he said: “I am the light of the world, whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
These words of Jesus should cause us to ponder our walk. Does anyone follow Jesus? Do I follow Jesus? Do you follow Jesus? If there is a yes to those questions then there is no darkness around us because we walk in the light of Christ, we do not see darkness, we see His light leading the way. It is like a boat at sea during the night and a lighthouse warns of danger ahead. If the lighthouse’s light is followed the boat will not be overwhelmed in darkness; if the light goes out, and the boat is overflowed in darkness the boat’s path will end in disaster. If we do have darkness along our walk, it is time to consider seeking the Lord with all our mind, with all our strength, and with all our heart. We can only see the way clearly if we follow Jesus’ light; there is no other way to avoid the darkness that steals our peace, hope and trust in Jesus. Without the light of Jesus danger is forever before us.
