Taking the Sermon Into Our Week
Scripture of the Week: John 8: 12 and Isaiah 9: 1-7
From the Sermon:
If we don’t understand what ____________ Jesus came to fulfill, it is really hard to to understand the “_______” statements found in the Gospel of John.
Scripture is not meant to be relegated to only certain times of the year, because it is the ___________________________.
What Isaiah is talking about here is a savior who is coming and is going to answer the very ______________________ for whom darkness is their daily reality.
God is continuing to overcome the _____________ that the people had been so steeped in over the years that they could not even see it any more.
Jesus says, “I am the ___________________ Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life.”
Reflection Questions:
How would you react if you hear the words from the prophet Isaiah?
How do we react as the Church when we hear that Jesus is the light of the world?
Are you truly trusting that Jesus is the light of the world? Are you seeking to see and share that light?
Prayer:
Lord Jesus, remind us again that you are the light of the world that darkness cannot overcome and let us live from this truth, we pray. Amen.
