Jesus, the light of the world

The light symbolizes goodness, truth and God's presence while darkness represents sin and separation from God. In today's gospel, Jesus says: “I’am the light of the world”. By this claim, Jesus becomes for us, the barometer of world welfare; the source of spiritual truth, guidance, goodness and hope even in the midst of darkness and troubles of this world. Those who follow Jesus and his teachings, even though they walk in the valley of the shadow of death, they will fear no evil, for the lord is with them (Ps 23:4). Jesus has conquered the world (John 16:33). Let's walk in the light.

Jesus, I trust in you!
