JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Light Reflection is from Revelation 1:18.

Jesus identified Himself by various “I Am” statements. These statements open our eyes to the reality of who Jesus is and what He can accomplish on our behalf.

Jesus said to John in Revelation 1:18, “I am the Living One; I was dead, and now, look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.”

Jesus really did die on that cross 2,000 years ago, but the good news is that He did not stay in that grave. He rose from the dead 3 days later and lives forever. That means He can hear the prayers of our heart, He can help us in our time of need, and He can save us from our sins. He has authority over our eternal destiny. He has the power to give us a place in His Heavenly Home, where there is no more death, or mourning, or crying, or pain.

Romans 10:9 says “If you declare with your mouth, ‘Jesus is Lord’ and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.”

This Light Reflection inspires us to trust in Jesus as the Living One who faithfully loves us in the Year to Shine.

Happy Spring!  We are awake and alive (again)! As Song of Solomon says, “the whole world is a choir”. So, join in and sing along!
