THE POWER OF LIGHT

AN AMAZING FACT: Photosynthesis is the process by which chlorophyll containing organisms—such as green plants, algae, and some bacteria—capture energy in the form of light and convert it to chemical energy. Virtually all the energy available for life on Earth is made available through photosynthesis.
To produce the same amount of energy that trees and plants produce from sunlight in one day would require all the coal in 20,500,000 coal cars—or the equivalent of a coal train that wraps around the world six times! It takes almost nine minutes for a photon of light to travel the 93 million miles from the sun to the Earth, but a plant needs only a few trillionths of a second to capture the light energy, process it, and store it in the form of a chemical bond!

The bread we eat, the air we breathe, and even the wood we use to build our homes comes through this miraculous process—lasagna, lumber, and air for our lungs come from sunlight. NASA scientists have studied this process for years, knowing that it is the secret to long-term space travel. However, so far man has been unable to duplicate what God does so easily through plants!

There is another life-giving process that God has created through the Light of the World. The beams from the Son of Righteousness have energy and transforming power to change your life. “Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, ‘I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life’” (John 8:12).

When Christ shines into your heart, there is a miraculous process of change. A sin-hardened heart becomes soft. A proud spirit becomes humble. A selfish life begins to think about others. Like the photosynthesis process that captures energy, we can receive life from Jesus that changes our characters. Without the Light of the World, we are without hope of change.
