Darkness cannot understand Light

"And the light shines in the darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it." John 1:5 When I was really thinking about this verse it made me think of all the joy I receive from the Light. There is an overflow of joy. To think that there are some who will never experience that same joy makes me sad. Those who do not receive the eternal crown will never see the beauty of Christ. The world did not know Him because the world became dark. It is the darkness within us that makes us not understand who He is. There are times when we become offended by His ways, and that is simply the darkness that is confused by the Light of truth.

When we strive to stay in His presence we will continue to receive more and more understanding through His Light. And when we do receive His Light, He gives us the right to become children of God, born of the Living God and not of flesh. The true Light gives light to every man coming into the world. I want to understand Christ to fullest measure.


"...I lifted my eyes toward heaven and my understanding returned to me..."
Daniel 4:34
