Light of the World, we look to You
and rejoice to find…You are perpetually lit.
You are indispensable, never faltering…
not even a little bit.
Your illumination not only directs our travels
to ordained streets
But also provides warmth when…chills of trouble…
we meet.
Many yesterdays ago, we were quite content…
to follow nocturnal fireflies
Which flew down paths, hither and thither
leading us to…pass You by.
But now…we have detoured from such roads…
now, Dear God…we know…
There is no direction, indeed, we are totally lost…
without …Your glow.
Day in and out, despite this life’s…
maddening twirl
we are yet Loved and Sustained by…You…
Light of the World!
Jhn 1:4, 1Jhn 1:5, Rev 21:23

No matter how Christian we are {or not}, there is a lot to be learned from the bible that serves us well, and offers a new perspective.

There is strong evidence, especially from Egypt, where the Jews and the Egyptians identify the sun with God. Thereby making God, the bringer of light. Actually just the sun raised to the level of religion.
