Jesus is the Light of the World
Activity (Optional)
Gather as a family and light a candle or shine a torch. Sing a Christmas carol about Jesus, e.g. Away in a Manger or Silent Night.
Devotional
Before Jesus was born, the Bible says people were walking in darkness (Isaiah 9:2). They were longing for someone who would bring light and show them the way to God’s plan for them. Jesus was, and is, that person. In John Chapter 8 Verse 12, he announces he is "the light of the world" (NIV). Jesus is the one we’ve all been longing for–the light that we follow, our hope for the future.
When we shine a torch on the path in front of us, it is easier to walk that path. When we follow Jesus, the light of the world, we can walk the path of life before us.
As we light candles in this Advent season, let’s pause and think of Jesus. He came to Earth as a baby and as our Savior who lights our way to know God.

- What kind of things do we see more clearly when we shine a light on them?
- How could your family share the light of Jesus with others this Christmas?
Pray
Dear Jesus, thank you that you are the light of the world–you light our way to give us hope and purpose. Help us to follow you and your ways of loving and helping others. In Jesus’ name, Amen.
