In him was life, and that life was the light of men. The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it. 


John 1:4-5


I have been struck lately with the thought that people really do want to believe. There's a part of all of us that really wants to believe there's a God - there's something really big out there that loves us.

Whether you believe it or not - do you want to? Is there something inside that stirs when you think of the possibility that there might be something out there worth believing in?

That's the life I think we see in people. When we see that light - that life - we all have seen it. That magical beautiful unmistakeable reality. Maybe you have even experienced it...

John tells us what it is.

It's Jesus.

Maybe you haven't understood it before. But trust these words for once. Jesus is life. He's the light you find yourself drawn to. You may not be able to believe it. But is there something inside you that wants to? What if you let desire lead this time? Maybe there is a time to follow your heart.
