Christmas Lights Point us to Jesus

Have you ever wondered why it is a tradition to hang lights at Christmas. I’d never really given it a thought until last night as I was driving around admiring all the lights.

It suddenly hit me–In scripture, Jesus says “I am the light.”

Decorating with lights points us toward Jesus as we prepare to celebrate his birth. So does attending candlelight Christmas Eve services. I guess I should have known this by now, but, like I said, I just never thought about it! Call me slow if you want!

Leesburg, Florida, Christmas Lights

Thinking about how the lights represent Jesus added to my enjoyment of the evening as I admired both city and personal home displays near our winter home. I’m posting them for my readers to enjoy.
