“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it” - John 1:5 The opening verses of John’s Gospel shows Jesus as the incarnation of God. Jesus was God in human form, and this verse outlines His mission to bring the light of God’s life into a dark and dying world. Similarly, in Luke, an angel of the Lord appeared to the shepherds with the glory of God shining around them. The shepherds were told of the arrival of the Messiah, who came to save us all. As followers of Christ, we shine His light by loving as the Father loves and forgiving as we have been forgiven. Be that light today as we celebrate Advent and await the birth of Christ. #advent #christmas #mission #churches #chaplains #ministry #cedesports
