The very next verse (Gen 1:3) says: “And God said, ‘Let there be light’, and there was light.” When the Spirit hovers over our darkened souls, it only takes a small opening for His Light to brighten our dark and formless hearts.
Jesus is that Light – He is the source of Light and He is the Light of the world.
In him was life, and that life was the light of all mankind. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has not overcome it. (John 1:4-5)
The darkness cannot overcome the light. Think about this – when a room is dark, you only need to open the door a crack to allow the light in, and it immediately takes over the dark. But when a room is filled with light, opening the door to a dark hallway will not chase the light away - in fact the hallway will get lighter.
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.” (John 8:12)
Open your dark heart and let the Spirit in to begin the transformation. The Light of the world will bring to light a whole new world.
