Light of the World
One of my favorite elements of Christmas time is all the lights. I love how our living room looks so cozy with the twinkling lights on the tree. Ordinary buildings look festive with strings of bulbs. As a kid, my parents would put Christmas lights on my playhouse. Lights make ordinary things look magical and festive.
A great light also pointed to where Baby Jesus was born and guided the wise men to find him. Jesus then calls us lights in Matthew 5. And light was the first thing to be created in the world. Light is important to God
Just like the star pointed to Jesus, our light points others to him today. Don’t hide your light. We don’t turn on Christmas lights during the day, do we? No, we turn them on at night. Light shines out most brightly in the darkness and our world is in constant need of light.
It needs the light of Christ shining through you.
