JESUS IS OUR LIGHT

"And the city had no need of the sun, neither of the moon, to shine in it: for the glory of God did lighten it, and the Lamb is the light thereof."

Revelation 21:23
King James Version

Jessie B. Pounds wrote the beautiful hymn "BEAUTIFUL ISLE OF SOMEWHERE". I love the words in this hymn.

"Somewhere the sun is shining, Somewhere the songbirds dwell; Hush, then, thy sad repining, God lives, and all is well.

Somewhere, somewhere, Beautiful Isle of Somewhere! Land of the true, where we live anew, Beautiful Isle of Somewhere!

Somewhere the day is longer, Somewhere the task is done; Somewhere the heart is stronger, Somewhere the guerdon won.
Somewhere the load is lifted, Close by an open door; Somewhere the clouds are rifted, Somewhere the angels sing."

Thank You, Jesus, for being our Light in a world filled with darkness and violence. What a healing balm it is to our weary battle scarred heart to know that You are with us all thr time and will never leave us and that we can depend on You and trust You.

I love You so much and look forward to the happy joyous day when I will have the privilege of seeing You face to face. Are you going to see Jesus face to face?

If you have never told God you are sorry for your sins, asked Him to forgive you and invited Jesus into your heart. I urge you to do it even as you read this devotion. Don't miss out on spending eternity with Jesus.
