Luke 1:77-79 says, “to give knowledge of salvation to his people in the forgiveness of their sins, because of the tender mercy of our God, whereby the sunrise shall visit us from on high to give light to those who sit in darkness and in the shadow of death, to guide our feet into the way of peace” (ESV). This sunrise at Blue Rocks, Nova Scotia broke through the darkness! Jesus’ birth broke through the darkness! How? Jesus, the Christ-Child, broke into our dark world to provide a way of salvation from our sin. He came to die! He died and rose again to be a bridge between us and God. Let’s remember, this Christmas, the light of Jesus! Through faith in Him we are made right with God! Jesus, the Christmas light, provides us “the way of peace!”
