Lights! On trees, lawns, homes!

What IS it about Christmas lights that draw us in and make us smile?

Lights are festive and help celebrate!

Lights brighten the darkness!

They also brighten any path we travel, like drive-through Christmas lights.

And in life, with so much uncertainty and upheaval; loss; unexpected twists and turns - boy, do we sure need light.

The birth of a baby 2,000 years ago gave us the "light of the world." Jesus. The humble baby nestled in straw.

God's Word says "if we walk in the light, the blood of Jesus purifies us from all sin." All of my selfish choices, my wrongdoing, my sin. GONE! Because of turning to the Light! To Jesus!
