HANUKKAH TODAY!
During the eight nights of Hanukkah, a candle is lit in a special candelabra called a ‘hanukkiyah’.
It’s an amazing story resulting in the dedication of the second temple in Jerusalem. In John 9:5 Jesus says, “I am the light of the world.” The next chapter and in verses 22-23 Jesus was in the temple during the time of Hanukkah, it was winter and it was dark. He chose to say those I AM words at that amazing time.
And during this time of Christmas when our dark streets are lit up with shining dazzling lights of candles, bulbs and other fluorescent images, Christ is still declaring He is the LIGHT.
The LIGHT of Christmas
2 Corinthians 4: 5-6
Where does Paul say Jesus the light is shining? It’s not in the temple, nor on the dark streets, but in our hearts!
The reason why you are influential is because of the light illuminating in your heart and in your home as you continually dedicate your life to Him.
So happy Hanukkah!
