From today’s Scripture: “I, the LORD, have called you for the victory of justice, I have grasped you by the hand; I formed you, and set you as a covenant of the people, a light for the nations, To open the eyes of the blind, to bring out prisoners from confinement, and from the dungeon, those who live in darkness.”—Is 42:6-7
As men and women of faith, we are called to be formed by our Savior, Jesus, and thus to be a light to the “nations.” This is not done in a boastful or arrogant manner but with the humility of our Redeemer. Take a few moments today and reflect on, how have I grasped the hand of Jesus, walked in his footsteps, and witnessed to the one who is the eternal light in a world often engulfed in darkness?
Let us pray: Come Lord Jesus, come and fill the hearts of those imprisoned in darkness with your light.
