John 8:12 When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." 

I was at a teaching this week where a Rabbi was telling an amazing story about the Feast of Tabernacles. He said that in the evening everyone had to light a candle and put it in the window. The whole town was lit up beautifully with candles glowing and it looked like the city was filled with fire.
Jesus was at this very Feast when he said," I am the light of the world."

All who heard Him say this were witnessing the brightest light of the year and now they were witnessing the light of all mankind. Wow!

These are called the High Holy Days and I am so thankful that God sets in place reminders that help us not lose our way and keep us on the path with Him

Lord thank you for being the light of the world

and the one who gives light to our darkened souls

Thank you for deliverance that makes us whole

Help us look to you to light the path ahead

until we come to be with you and rest in all you said


PS. on my Feast of Tabernacles Blog......I was thinking about how Egypt , ,(sin and comfort) is not just a one time  temptation to overcome, but a daily battle we all face time and time again.  I can never assume I have "Made it" but my hope is that God will make this weak vessell strong as long as I keep my eyes on the only true light, the Light Of The World.
