Jesus brought light to the world...but the world did not receive it

To God...there is no such thing as "darkness"...there's only such thing as "no light", because God IS the LIGHT...of the world. And it only depends on the world...if they want to receive it or not. Places that are dark, are only "dark" because it lacks the presence of light.

So one day...actually it was today, I decided to look outside my window from my house during night time. I had the lights on in the inside of course. Nd wut did i see?...u answered correctly, nothing (excluding the moon and the stars). I saw nothing...but darkness, during the night time. From the outside, ppl in the dark could probably be able to spot me no problem. But if u looked at it the other way around...it would be nearly impossible to find anyone who would be hiding in the dark at this moment (nd tht's when i got scared, well not realli, but it's always kinda freaky how ppl can see u, but u can't see them. Like....wut if there were snipers around, I would be target practice! well, not even, cuse im askin fr it...srry realli random). BUT I started thinking...if only the light inside our house were bright enough, to light up everything else outside! there wouldn't be darkness anemore...nd it would depend how bright that light is.

Similarly, that small light in our house, only bright enough to light up the places inside, is just like OUR LIGHT for God. It symbolizes our burning passion and fire to serve HIM and make HIM known to the world. The darkness represents the ppl and places who do not know God, and is not within his light. If there were more shining, bright lights for God, then more areas of the world would be lit up. How bright do we shine for God (quanlity)...nd how many lights are shining for him (quantity)?? Do we live a life that causes our light to shine on other ppl?

the ppl in darkness (outside) can see the ppl in light (inside), but ppl in light can't see ppl in darkness. Nd i thought...it's kinda true. Ppl who do things in the dark (usually sinful things), try to hide it...nd can't be seen. But ppl in the light have nothing that can't be seen.

God's light is bright enough to light up the whole world.

i gotta say....tht's a pretty sick analogy..i dun think i ever came up with one b4...
