Rest In His Light

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God. All things were made through him, and without him was not any thing made that was made.  In him was life, and the life was the light of men.  John 1:1-4

He was the beginning, He is the Truth carried through time. In the souls of men who stumble in darkness and yearn for light. In droplets of clouds which steal the light, releasing it again in rainwater to satisfy the dust. In the cells of a green leaf reaching from the cool shade into nourishing glow. He was the beginning. All of these things were made through Him. He saves each who comes.  

He came to quench the fields of dearth, revealed by a bright star calling all who would to gather into His Light. Some remain in the dark, not noticing Who came. They only regard their familiar night and walk the same dim path their feet have worn deep for centuries. 

Those who behold Him come with gifts and wonder and He gives them life. He has forged a narrow path through the darkness and disorder. Jesus is the Way out of darkness. There is profound rest in His Light.

The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.  John 1:5
