9 But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God’s special possession, that you may declare the praises of him who called you out of darkness into his wonderful light. 10 Once you were not a people, but now you are the people of God; once you had not received mercy, but now you have received mercy. (I Peter 2)
Light is a key theme in the Christian life. Jesus talked about Him being the Light of the World, then in the next breath us being the light of the world. He puts the light into us. (Matthew 6) Paul talks about us no longer being in darkness, but being "children of light." (I Thessalonians 5) When we receive Christ, there is a light that removes fear, helps us see the right path, and gives us a calming assurance that all is well and will be well. May He light up our day and our lives so we may light the way for others around us.
