JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Faith-Building Verse is John 12:46.

Jesus said, “I have come into the world as a light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness.”

One of the reasons for Jesus coming to the earth was so that we might not remain in the darkness of our own sin. The light of Jesus brings the hope of a new day for our souls. We can begin again, change direction, and walk with Jesus in the light of His grace and truth.

By following Jesus, He will help us to see ourselves and others more clearly with value and dignity.

He will also give us clarity for going forward in God’s will. A prophecy in Isaiah 2:3 says that He will teach us his ways, so that we may walk in his paths.

This Faith-Building Verse inspires us to come out of darkness into the radiant light of following Jesus in the Year of Relationship.
