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.”
—John 8:12
Have you ever walked on a moonless night in the woods?
It’s so incredibly dark.
It can even be hard to see your own feet.
However, if someone is in front of you with a flashlight, the situation is totally different.
Looking ahead, the light shows you where to go as you follow.
The darkness is displaced by the light.
If we are following Jesus, He is our light.
We no longer have to stumble in the darkness.
