Summary
In him was life, and the life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. | John 1.4-5
In order to experience the anticipation of Jesus coming, we have to know the PEACE that comes from being rescued. It is too easy to get used to the darkness; to assume there is no other way. When this happens we run from God as we pursue our own answers to the difficulty of life. Knowing why we are in darkness helps us to see that this is not inevitable. Knowing we have a God who is more powerful, allows us to see another way. As we prepare for the light to enter into the world, we look at our sin as the reason He had to come.
