The Light of the World
Malcolm Baker ponders the journey from darkness to light and reminds us that Light triumphs… “The Light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it” John 1:5
The Light that existed before light was created shines today. As nature grows and flourishes under natural sunlight, we see and experience beauty, even in the ugliness of this fallen world. The beautiful flowers and trees all around; and the fruit and vegetables that we feed on and are nourished by, cause our body cells to flourish and burst forth with life too.
Life, in a sense, is the response to the light and the warmth of the sun; which in turn is something of a reflection of the power, character, and nature of God.
