JOHN SHIRK – Today’s Light Reflection is from Isaiah 9:2.

“The people walking in darkness have seen a great light; on those living in the land of deep darkness a light has dawned.”

This is a prophecy concerning Jesus who would come hundreds of years later to break the darkness of sin with His light of grace and truth.

He did not come for people who were lovable and perfect. He came for people who needed a Savior, and by His death on the cross and resurrection from the dead, He fulfilled God’s plan of redemption.

Jesus is the great light that we need to find our way out of spiritual darkness. Jesus said in John 8:12, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life.”

This Light Reflection inspires us to step out of the darkness and follow Jesus in the Year to Shine.
