A Christmas thought by Billy Graham, taken from "Hope for Each Day":
The Night of Light
"I am the light of the world.
He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness."
~ John 8:12
"This month the birthday of Jesus Christ will be celebrated all over the world. It will be celebrated in various ways all over the world. It will be celebrated in various ways, in many languages, by people of all races. For a few hours many in the world will stop talking satellites, rockets, and war. For a few hours they will talk of peace on earth and good will toward men. People will exchange gifts and talk about the Prince of Peace.
"Imagine the scene in Bethlehem two thousand years ago. It was the night of nights, and yet it had begun as every other night had before it.
"But it was to become the greatest, most significant night of history. This was the night that would conquer darkness and bring in the day when there would be no more night. This was the night when those who sat in darkness would see a great light. This was the night God brought into the world the One who is 'the light of the world'.
May His light shine in your life this Christmas season!"
