No matter how dark the world looks or how hopeless your situation feels, you can find hope in the Light of the world.

John 1:5 promises, “The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it.” The light that beams through despair, hopelessness, and defeat is Jesus. He is victorious over sin, death, and the devil. 

Friend, take heart. Remember that darkness is no match for your Savior, Jesus!
