Bringing light into the world

As I was watching a movie recently there was a scene of a young man and woman going across a bridge in a park. As they walked across the arced wooden bridge over a small stream, they were carrying lanterns. It was a tradition of the town they were in to do this at the yearly festival. The young man, being new to the community, asked why this was a tradition for the townspeople. The young lady answered him saying, “We feel it helps bring light into the world.”

I thought this phrase was tremendous since this is what all of us should be doing. We are amid a dark world filled with sin and ugliness. All one must do is look around and see what Satan is doing. After all, God allows him to be the prince of the air.
