“I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

“And the light shineth in darkness, and the darkness did not comprehend it.”

“John 1:5"Light shines into the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it”

“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish, but have eternal life.”

“Come unto me, all ye that labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.”

“You're here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world.(Matthew 5:14, The Message)”

“Here's another way to put it: You're here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We're going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I make you light-bearers, you don't think I'm going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I'm putting you on a light stand. Now that I've put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you'll prompt people to open up with God, this generous Father in heaven.”
