Jesus spoke to the people once more and said, “I am the light of the world. If you follow me, you won’t have to walk in darkness, because you will have the light that leads to life.”

John 8:12

Jesus came into the world to illuminate the way back to God. As followers of Jesus, we are invited to imitate his way of life. That includes illuminating the way back to God. Paul says it like this:

Imitate God, therefore, in everything you do, because you are his dear children. Live a life filled with love, following the example of Christ. He loved us and offered himself as a sacrifice for us, a pleasing aroma to God.

Ephesians 5:1-2

How is your light? Is it shining brightly, showing others the way to God? Or has it become dull and lifeless? Maybe it’s time for a power check.
