John 1:1-5: In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was with God in the beginning. Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.
Lord, we see so much darkness. People hurting people.
Illness and death, poverty and tragedy; war and cruelty. The ugliness in my own
heart. Often, it’s hard to see hope.
Thank you, Lord, for reminding me that no darkness can
overcome your light.
The light in the beauty in your creation. The miracle that
you have reached out and still seek me. The comfort of your daily walk beside
me. The hope, the truth of your salvation.
The darkness cannot overcome you.
Amen!!! What hope!!! What joy to know darkness cannot EVER overcome His light!!! Thank you, Jesus, that in You we are overcomers too!! Thank you for this, Kathy!! (Blessings, Erma) :)

DeleteYou are correct, Kathy. This world is becoming darker all the time. But it's no surprise. Every dispensation in the Bible ended on a negative note. We're approaching the end times, so it stands to reason, the closer we get to the appearance of the antichrist, the darker this world will become. But we as Christians have the Light within us.
ReplyDeleteJohn 8:12
Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.
We walk in the light where others stumble in the darkness. It's up to us to share that Light with those who don't have it.
What a blessing we have in knowing our Lord Jesus Christ.
Thank you for your encouraging words.
Oh, and we're having pizza for dinner tonight. LOL It's pizza and movie Friday in our household.
DeletePizza and movie Friday sounds good to me.:)
Deletethank you. Please, Jesus, help us to share your light. From Kathy
Yes, Kathy, the light will always prevail no matter how much the darkness tries to hide it!
