Daily Devo | The Light of Life (John 8:12-20)

Jesus earlier used the Feast of Passover to highlight how he was the true bread of life that came from heaven. Now at the Feast of Tabernacles, a feast during which the night would be lit up by four great lamps, Jesus declares that he is the true light of the world. Jesus lights up our darkness in order to lead us to a full life -- not just a life of being alive, but a life of truly living -- the fullness of life!

For Reflection:

Just as God had lit up the night for Israel in the desert, Jesus offers to light up our darkness so that we might find full life (zóé rather than bios).

- How does Jesus illuminate your world in a way that leads to a full life? What darkness might have tripped you up otherwise?

- The Pharisees demand additional testimony. Jesus offers his Father as a second witness. The Spirit and John the Baptist testified earlier as well. Who have been important witnesses for you? For whom might you be an important witness today?
