The world is hurting. We all know it. Darkness is everywhere. We see it every day. People are searching for light and hope.

Are you searching? Are you wondering if there is light left in the world? Are you looking for what is right in front of you?

There is light.

Even in the darkest night. Even when the news tells us that humanity has no hope left. Even when we can’t see the hope we have in Christ.

Jesus spoke to them again: “I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows me will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life.” ~John 8:12

There is hope.

We have eternity ahead of us. God is still in control, and He has good plans for us.

 “For I know the plans I have for you”—this is the Lord’s declaration—“plans for your well-being, not for disaster, to give you a future and a hope.” ~Jeremiah 29:11

God loves us. He will not abandon us. He is always with us.

We are the light of the world.

You are the light of the world. A city situated on a hill cannot be hidden. No one lights a lamp and puts it under a basket, but rather on a lampstand, and it gives light for all who are in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven. ~Matthew 5:14-16

When we show love, we show light to a dark world. When we take time to care, we show Jesus. We have the Light that the world is searching for.

Let your light shine.

Searching

Broken by the world

Declining the Love

Wandering in the dark

Blinded to the flicker

Listening for thunder

Missing the whisper

Watching for fire

Ignoring the spark

Waiting for the sun

Forgetting the rays

Pleading for rescue

Defying the Savior

Searching for what

Is in front of you
