John 1:1–5 NASB95
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
He was in the beginning with God.
All things came into being through Him, and apart from Him nothing came into being that has come into being.
In Him was life, and the life was the Light of men.

The Light around us
The Light beside us
The Light dwelling in us

Am I sharing the Light of Christ?
Am I blocking the Light of Christ?
