The true light that gives light to everyone was coming into the world. He was in the world, 

and though the world was made through him, the world did not recognize him.

John 1:9-10 NIV

"The true light" is a quiet warning for us that there are false or counterfeit lights that might appear good are not. 

Jesus is the True Light. 

Beware of counterfeits that promise quick, easy, self centred, self righteous paths.

Jesus is the True Light.

Truth, justice, mercy, compassion, love. 

Ever felt unseen?

That no one really knows you?

That the real you is missed completely by the world around you?

Jesus knows what that is like. 

Unrecognised.

Unseen.

He knows.

His life on earth showed that he did not walk past the small, the vulnerable, that his whole mission was to seek out the one who is lost. 

With Jesus we are never unseen.

Never unknown.

Never unloved.

Let the True Light of truth, justice, mercy, compassion, & love shine on you, and through you today
