Many of us remember singing these words, perhaps as children in Sunday School: “This little light of mine; I’m going to let it shine. Hide it under a bushel? No! I’m going to let it shine.” Those simple lyrics carry a powerful Biblical truth. In Isaiah 60:1, God calls His people to action, saying, “Arise, shine, for your light has come, and the glory of the LORD rises upon you.”

That light is Jesus Christ. He stepped into a dark world, took our sin upon Himself on the cross, so we could receive forgiveness, and eternal life could be ours. When we place our faith in Him alone, His light shines in us, not to be hidden, but to be shared.

The world around us is filled with people searching for hope, peace, and truth. God calls us to shine the light of Christ through telling others about Him. Let’s share the Gospel!

The Bible ends with a powerful picture of hope. In Revelation 21:23, we’re told that in the new heaven and new earth, there will be no need for the sun or the moon, because the glory of God gives it light, and the Lamb is its lamp. For those who trust in Jesus Christ, this is our future. A perfect place where sin, suffering, and death no longer exist, and where we will live in the presence of God forever. This hope is possible because Jesus stepped into the darkness of our world, died on the cross for our sins, and rose again in victory. Darkness did not win. Jesus did.

But until that day, God calls us to live as people of the light who share the hope of the Gospel with others. Let’s tell those around us about Who Jesus is and what He has done for them! ________________________

The same God who spoke light into existence is still at work today. Second Corinthians 4:6 tells us that God, who said, “Let light shine out of darkness,” now shines in our hearts through Jesus Christ. That light changes everything. When we trust in Christ, God opens our eyes, forgives our sin, and fills us with hope that lasts beyond this life. Jesus’ sacrifice on the cross for us turned spiritual darkness into living light. And for all those who place their trust in Jesus, He gives the gift of eternal life. He shines through us so others can see the truth of the Gospel.

Ask God to use your witness to point someone to Christ. Be ready to share the Gospel.
