It seems that every kid has a fear of the dark. Rationally, we know that whether the light is on or off, the same things are in the room. The same trees are in the woods during the day and at night. What frightens us as kids, and even as adults is what we don’t know and can’t see. As adults, more fear comes from this figuratively. What will happen to my job, my marriage, my kids, my health? What is on the horizon for the world? In this second “I AM” statement of Jesus, twice he tells people, “I AM the light of the world”. And that truth has power to change it.
