I recently read a letter from one of the church’s supported missionaries to India. Today, the people of India celebrate the festival of lights and will light candles all throughout their homes. They will make sure that every area of their home has light. The reason for this celebration is that they believe and are taught that all evil spirits can be driven out by the light and the homes can be cleansed. Further, they believe that the prosperity goddess will bring new blessings as she will see her way to their home as it is lit. What the people of India do not realize as they celebrate today, they have left the true light out. I am so glad that I know the true light and He has given eternal life to me! They work so one of their gods will see them and bless them! Jesus saw me in the darkness of sin that had wrapped around my soul and He cast the light of His love that we might see Him and His way! Pray for these missionaries and the people of India that they may see the True Light!
