My Christmas jacket is pretty special. It's red and decorated with images of Christmas lights, and it even has small light bulbs in the fabric that turn on. Well, they used to. As the years have gone by, those lights have gotten dimmer and they're pretty hard to see unless you squint just right.
I'm Brad Hutchcraft, and that's how Christmas goes sometimes as we get older, isn't it? Over the years, the noise of all we face in the world seems to get louder and the lights grow dimmer.
I think that's why I love Christmas so much. It offers a time to reset our focus and restore our joy. We can focus our eyes on the Light that never dims. The Light that only Jesus can bring.
In John 8:12, Jesus said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life." Because Jesus came as a baby, lived a sinless life, died on the cross for you, and defeated death by rising again, you can have that same light in your life. The Light that NEVER dims!
