Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” John 8:12 . “There is a Light who is the Creator of the sun’s light. Let us love that light. Let us yearn to reach out and thirst for Him. Consequently, He will lead and take us to Him. In this manner we will live in Him and we will not die… The One who shines over you so that you might see Him is the same source who flows over you and quenches your thirst…. Even when the Lord Jesus Christ did not reveal himself to everyone as He was hidden by the cloud of this body, yet He is who He is: The One who controls everything through the power of His wisdom… Your God is fully present in everyplace, and He will never abandon you, if you do not abandon Him.” St Augustine #lightoftheworld #dailyreadings #coptic #orthodox #ChristisRisen #lightoflife
