Light Shines

I have come into the world as light, so that whoever believes in me may not remain in darkness.—Jesus in John 12:46

Jesus understood his mission. His mission—to reveal God and his plan for salvation. He was and is "understanding" in a world that desperately lacks it. And "belief in Jesus" brings into sight solutions the world needs. So many of us men struggle to "understand" with clarity. Usually, because we lack belief—evidenced by our questions about life, purpose, marriage, family, career, and the future. God gives us plenty of opportunities to "believe in Jesus," rather than believing in our ingenuity, trusting our gut, and exerting our sheer will. He even gave us Jesus as an example of the focused determination of belief—even relentless belief that we all need

DO THIS: Let his light shine.

PRAYER: God, may I let your light of understanding shine through my life today.
