I believe in Jesus Christ, and I believe that He is also known as "the light and life of the world." In tonight's religion class, the following idea came to me: Jesus Christ isn't just the spiritual light and life of the world, He is the literal light and life of the world. He created the world, for "without him was not anything made that was made." He created life on the earth. He made the light that sustains life on earth.
All this may seem rather fundamental. But, when I really think about it, that truth puts things in perspective. I feel I can thank God for more things in my prayers because I can see a little more clearly how things are made possible because of Christ. Also, light and truth are topics that fascinate me. I am grateful that, for me, more light was shed about "the light and life of the world."
