Jesus couldn't state His purpose
any more clearly. The multitudes were growing, the religious leaders were becoming angry and jealous, and Jesus was speaking truth. But being like no one people had ever encountered before, He baffled them. His light either brightened their dark dispair, lifting their eyes to see. Or shone so bright, with a glare, that it hurt their eyes and exposed their shameful heart's desire. Truth has a way of baffling and breaking through the world's gray and foggy haze. And when people aren't used to thinking for themselves, it takes them by surprise. Jesus spoke it. We need only to listen, to hear, to believe. Eternal life... lived to the full and overflowing can be ours now and forever. Let us be sure to turn toward the light rather than hiding from it. Word of God train me today... To let Your light shine in my darkness and see the hope and joy You bring. To hear and believe Your truth that we know our eternity is not only secure, but available to the full now.
