DAILY READINGS: 1 Chronicles 2:1-55; Ezekiel 3:16-4:17; 2 Timothy 4:1-22

Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. John 8:12

Yesterday, when gardening, I pulled a long kikuyu root from near the edge of the house. It seemed as if it were never ending. Finally I found the end of that shoot which was searching for the light. It measured 17
and a half feet. Today people spread out long roots seeking for pleasure and purpose but the end is always darkness. All the while the Light of the world is waiting patiently for them. —Janet Fleming

Jesus is the light that shines to the world,
Shining in the darkest night,
Anyone who follows, Jesus has said,
“They shall have the light of life.” —Janet Fleming
