The Light of all Mankind

This blog is for all of those of you who deliberately choose to follow the  Greatest Light of all, Jesus Christ. We are all children of light, and I hope this blog encourages all of you to remind you of our identity with Christ, through music, pictures, scripture, and various writing forms using the a theme of dwelling and living in the light and I'll try to post something every day.
Anyways:


John 1:1-4 
¹ In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. ² He was with God in the beginning. ³ Through him all things were made; without him nothing was made that has been made. ⁴ In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. 


From this passage we know that in God there was life, and that life was the light for all mankind. Jesus was that light for all mankind. As Christians we follow God, the Great I am and it only through the Son, Jesus Christ, that we can have a personal relationship the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. Therefore, the light is in all of us and I pray that we are all shining like the stars to the darkness that surrounds us. 


So, for all youeople in their mid-20's. This is for you. A youtube video of DC Talk's In the Light!!! I'm also posting the lyrics below for good measure.


DC Talk- In the Light


I keep trying to find a life
On my own, apart from You
I am the king of excuses
I've got one for every selfish thing I do

What's going on inside of me?
I despise my own behavior
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
That I'm still a man in need of a Savior

(chorus)
I wanna be in the Light
As You are in the Light
I wanna shine like the stars in the heavens
Oh, Lord be my Light and be my salvation
Cause all I want is to be in the Light
All I want is to be in the Light

The disease of self runs through my blood
It's a cancer fatal to my soul
Every attempt on my behalf has failed
To bring this sickness under control

Tell me, what's going on inside of me?
I despise my own behavior
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
That I'm still a man in need of a Savior

(repeat chorus)

Honesty becomes me
[There's nothing left to lose]
The secrets that did run me
[In Your presence are defused]
Pride has no position
[And riches have no worth]
The fear that once did cover me
[Has been sentenced to this Earth]
Has been sentenced to this Earth

Tell me, what's going on inside of me?
I despise my own behavior
This only serves to confirm my suspicions
That I'm still a man in need of a Savior

(repeat chorus 2x)
