After Death: Discovering HeavenBài mẫu

## “And this light was light that is love and life. It was palpable and not hard to look at, but it came out of everything. And yet, it made everything vibrant.” [IMAGE CONTENT] # The Light of the Lord Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night in an unfamiliar space? The hotel room you’re staying in for a work trip, the rental you booked for vacation, the home of a family friend you’re visiting for the first time. If you have, then you know just how disorienting the experience can be. Everything is shrouded in darkness, and, under that cover, even if just for a moment, you’re not sure where you are. For many of us, death feels like that dark, unfamiliar room. It’s a space in our mind’s eye that we just can’t see out of the cover of darkness. While so much about the experience of passing from this life to the next remains in the dark for us today, there is one thing we can be sure of: the light of the Lord will meet us there. As believers in Jesus, we have access to this very thing Jesus tells us: We have access to His light. That means, we’ll never be left to walk in darkness again. In this life and for eternity, we’ll be met, held, and led by the one Source of light in this world. The One who can illuminate even the darkest of spaces. The One who will welcome us out of the darkness of death and into the light of eternity. So, as you think on what is waiting for you beyond this life, be comforted to know that, as followers of Jesus, there is no darkness to be found there. Only the light of the world to welcome you home. ## A Prayer Lord, thank You for the gift of Your light. I pray that You would illuminate a path for me in this life and welcome me with the warmth of your light in the next. When darkness threatens to cover my thoughts, shine Your light to help me see clearly again. Thank You for being the light of the world. [IMAGE CONTENT]
