The Word from the Throne LIGHT
What do we see in each other?
Jesus – the light of the world! Jesus – the light for all Jesus – the true light Jesus – puzzling … and inextinguishable.
The Word from the Throne LIGHT worked out in John 8 & 9
God blesses the righteous God doesn’t bless the unrighteous The blessed are righteous The unblessed are unrighteous Therefore this man is wicked
“I am the light of the world Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life”
Jesus, you are my bright burning candle of hope You are my heart’s ease. You are my soul’s salvation. You are my never failing beacon of praise. You are my guiding light in the fog of doubt’s confusion. Jesus, your love tumbles in pure unfettered joy over my mountain rocks of trouble. Your love bathes my wounded spirit. Your love refreshes my scarred mind. Your love colours my grey depression. Jesus, your energy injects my broken spirit and your power lifts my broken wings. Your divine being invades my muddled humanity. Your beauty invades my everyday routine. Your victory flattens the barriers of human weakness. Jesus, your hope soars beyond my mountain peaks. Your certain calm climbs the angry battlements of my days. Your victory song surmounts my sorrow and your arms receive my broken life.
Your welcome beckons beyond any other desire. Jesus, your divine kingdom caresses my thoughts. Your love lifts my prayers into heaven’s brightness. Your knowledge of me overwhelms my tears. Your kiss of love whispers peace within my soul. Your hand grips mine in abiding grace. Your leading gives my life boundless love. All my soul’s abandoned praise I pour into your heavenly cup of joy. You have given me hope beyond measure and beyond all treasure. Jesus, I bow in adoration. Your resurrection breaks my doubt and fear. Your glory shines in my darkness. Your majesty invigorates my slow and sinful life. Your saving sacrifice paid the price for me. Take my life and use it for your glory.
