The world’s light, Jesus, shines in the lives of individuals who have accepted him. The truth is that living without Jesus is like living in the shadows. According to Jesus, if a person follows him, his life will be filled with light.
Along with those who are still in the dark, we should also bring them the light of Jesus. The light of God will shine in their life when we offer them, Jesus. The bread of life, the living water, the way, the truth, and life are all found in Jesus.
He is also the source of all these things. He represents the wise shepherd. To have the light that will guide us to life, we, therefore, need Jesus in our lives.
