Guide us to Thy perfect Light

Isaiah 9:2 - The people that walked in darkness have seen a great light: they that dwell in the land of the shadow of death, upon them hath the light shined.

John 1:1 - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
John 1:4-5 - In Him was life, and the Life was the Light of men. And the Light shineth in darkness and the darkness comprehended it not.
John 1:9 - That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.
John 1:12 - As many as received Him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on His name.

John 3:19-21 And this is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, and men loved darkness rather than light, because their deeds were evil. For everyone that doeth evil hateth the light, neither cometh to the light, lest his deeds should be reproved. But he that doeth truth cometh to the light, that his deeds may be made manifest, that they are wrought in God.

Matthew 6:22-23 - The light of the body is the eye: if therefore thine eye be single, thy whole body shall be full of light. But if thine eye be evil, thy whole body shall be full of darkness. If therefore the light that is in thee be darknes, how great is that darkness.

Matthew 5:16 - Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in Heaven.

Jesus Christ is the Light that shineth in darkness. He is the light that shined on those walking in darkness who dwell in the land of the shadow of death. If we accept Him, he gives us the power to become the sons of God. If we reject Him, we are condemned. Our attitude toward Christ will guide our entire life. Therefore, let's accept Christ, let our light shine, and glorify our Father in Heaven.

To God be the Glory. Amen.
