Light Within

As we all know, Facebook has become “Meta” short for metaverse as in universe. This is some sort of virtual reality concept that you can go to and interact with your friends and family in different universes. A world inside the computing space where you can create your own world, and it is perfect (another gadget to buy if you ask me). Anyway, it’s exciting to say the least, and bringing interest from rich people and investors (well, we ordinary citizens are the customers who will benefit from this type of communication, but the timing is somewhat off key). Yes, you have to buy their new virtual headset, and see this new world.

Pondering, there is something about light that emits to the eyes that astound me. This is just light being manipulated to our eyes, and you can create universes just by looking. To think about it, what kind of a world without light? If we live in darkness, is there life?

Just like a painting, light that reflects the paint gives life to it. Without light, there is no painting! We stare all day at our computer monitors that emit light, and we can see its power. It could change the world because of light. That’s how computing changed our world. Light is the source of life, and it is the first thing that God created in this real universe. Now, we could create our own worlds and universes by this same light.

“You are the source of all life,
and because of your light we see the light.”
Psalms 36:9

But, why is God the Light in the Bible? We all know that when you say you are in the Light, it means that you are on the good side, and not the dark side which is evil. So, when you have this Light then you are following God, and doing good. Therefore, you can only have Life when you are doing good. That is why it says, “God is the source of Life… because of your Light we see Light.”

Jesus is the Way, The Truth, and The Life, says in the Bible. If you follow Jesus and have Jesus in your hearts, then you will have Life, and that is the Light within.
