Life without Christ is very different from life with Christ. He is
“the Light of the world” (John 8:12). When Christ shines His light into
our hearts, the whole of life is so much brighter than it could ever be
without Him. We could compare the world to a jigsaw. We don’t see the
complete picture until we have all the pieces in place. For many people,
Christ is “the missing piece.” He’s not just one small missing piece
that doesn’t really matter very much if it’s not there. He is the Centre
of everything. Take Him away, and everything else looks very different.
Put Him in His proper place, at the centre of our life, and we begin to
see the complete picture. Everything is centred on Him. When we see the
whole of life in relation to Christ, our whole life starts to make
sense in a way that it doesn’t when Christ is taken out of the picture.
God's Word is "a lamp to our feet and a light to our path." He has "wondrous things" to teach us as we pray "Open my eyes that I may see" (Psalm 119:105, 18, 11). "May God's blessing surround you each day, as you trust Him and walk in His way. May His presence within guard and keep you from sin, go in peace, go in joy, go in love." "Not unto us, O Lord, not unto us, but to Your Name give glory, because of Your mercy and Your truth" (Psalm 115:1).
