The Power of the Light

The first public words of Christ after His Baptism and temptation by the devil were words of inspiration. “Repent, for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.” (Matthew 4.17) Christ has invited us to change the way we look at life. He has invited us to look at those around us with the Light of Christ, rather than the darkness of the world. In a world filled with darkness, we have seen The Light of God, which will guide our path. It can be very easy to be distracted by the darkness, but we have the power to chase the devil away with the commandment, “Get behind me Satan!” and he is required by God to obey our prayer, because we have the power of the Light of God. God has given us the opportunity to live rather than die, to seek Him rather than run away because The Light has come and destroyed the darkness.
