John 12:35-36 … Enlivening the Light<br />
(09/26/20<strong>16</strong>)<br />
“Walk while you have the Light … If you walk in the Darkness, you do not<br />
know where you are going. While you have the Light, actualize the Light, so that<br />
you may become Children of the Light.” ~ Jesus (John 12:35-36)<br />
If the embedded Wisdom of this verse is <strong>to</strong> ever be fully known, it is critical <strong>to</strong><br />
keep in mind that Jesus is not referring <strong>to</strong> himself here, but is rather referencing<br />
the Light that he is shining upon all those he encounters -- a Light he is shining via<br />
his choice <strong>to</strong> lovingly self-sacrifice for others; a choice that is available <strong>to</strong> all<br />
sentient beings, and thus a Light that is available within them all as well.<br />
