Have we let the light go off? Or have we allowed sin to blow it off? Has doubt in the resurrection set in? Or are we Easter people living in the joy of our resurrected Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ?!
Dying to sin and living in the light is an on-going process, a daily struggle if you will. A struggle we do not need to face alone. For we have the living word and the Holy Spirit to help and guide us. And a faith that can go deeper and stronger, if we spend quality time in prayer and reflection with our Lord.
We depend not on our eyes to see but our hearts centred on Jesus.
Glory to You O Lord! Alleluia

John 14:6–14
Jesus said to Thomas, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. If you know me, then you will also know my Father. From now on you do know him and have seen him.” Philip said to him, “Master, show us the Father, and that will be enough for us.” Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you for so long a time and you still do not know me, Philip? Whoever has seen me has seen the Father. How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? Do you not believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on my own. The Father who dwells in me is doing his works. Believe me that I am in the Father and the Father is in me, or else, believe because of the works themselves. Amen, amen, I say to you, whoever believes in me will do the works that I do, and will do greater ones than these, because I am going to the Father. And whatever you ask in my name, I will do, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. If you ask anything of me in my name, I will do it.”
