I am come a light into the world,
that whosoever believeth on me,
should not abide in darkness.
John 12:46
Being that it's Christmas day and I don't have to go to work...
that whosoever believeth on me,
should not abide in darkness.
John 12:46
Being that it's Christmas day and I don't have to go to work...
I was able to spend much of the morning reading my Bible and pondering God's Word. And as the above Scripture from the Gospel of John declares, if anyone is not in Christ, he is in darkness.
There's no middle ground here. Either a person is saved, and he belongs to Christ, or he is lost, and he does not belong to Christ. And, unfortunately, much of the world's population is outside of Christ. They are in spiritual darkness and in ignorance because they have yet to believe that Jesus is the Savior for all who have placed their faith in Him.
Therefore, what a glorious privilege it is, then, to know Jesus as Savior and Lord, and to have Him living in one's heart. As He said to His disciples, "Ye are the light of the world" (Matthew 5:14).
But, aside from all this, during the noon hour, a few of my friends and I were able to gather for a simple holiday meal. We all chipped in and purchased various items from the prison's commissary. We do this every Christmas, and on New Year's Day, too. For us, it's a time to express brotherly kindness as well as thank the Lord for all His provisions. We also prayed together for our friends and families, whom we miss dearly.
