The Gift of Light


It's amazing how much light one match can create in a room of darkness.

The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world
. John 1:9

Every Sunday at church we pass the offering plate. Often times I hear this called "taking up the collection." I have come to understand that is wrong on so many levels.

I take time each Sunday to remind our congregation that our offering is an act of worship as we sacrifice to give a portion of what we have been given.

The idea of the gift of light struck me this week.

May your gifts be light in a world of darkness.
