Light Of The World!

“…Shines all around us, by day and by night, Jesus, The Light of the World…” Pressing-on.


Poem Artwork

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.

Early humans revered the sun because it was their source of warmth and life. Certain individuals, who plotted the course of the sun, like the druids and many other cultures around the planet, used it to predict and gain power among their fellows. They became the priests and prophets that kings and queens used to have power over the people.

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.

That live in a world that could more light, much more, especially this kind of light to shine down upon our troubled world. Fine food for thought in this new year.
