The darkness comprehended it not

John
{1:1} In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
{1:2} The same was in the beginning with God.
{1:3} All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
{1:4} In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
{1:5} And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.


**


The Word was with God.


In him was life.


The life was the light of men.


And the light shineth in darkness.


And the darkness comprehended it not.

Only through Jesus is eternal life given to mankind. Jesus is our only hope, our only light in a world of darkness and eternal darkness. Jesus has done all He can to bring this light to the darkness, to dispel the dark, to show mankind that there is light only in Him. The darkness comprehended it not. The darkness that invades us is deceptive, in fact the darkness is so deceptive it has people fooled into thinking they live in light when they don't. The light that surrounds us without Jesus is nothing compared to the true light that He brings. The world we live in without Jesus is completely made up of artifical light giving false hope that will fool many. The darkness comprehended it not.


We need Jesus. We need the light of men. We need life. We need to comprehend and not be lost in the darkness.


May God help us, giving us light dispelling the darkness in our lives. We need light, we need life, we need Jesus.


By His grace and mercy.


Amen.
