Dear Light Group,
The world is not always what we think it should be. Last year, 2024, was turbulent, and this year, 2025, is off to a rocky start.
But through it all, we need to remember who we are: “Ye are the Light of the world.” So said Jesus over two thousand years ago. It remains our North Star. The fuller version of what Jesus said in the Sermon on the Mount is: “Ye are the Light of the world. A city that is on a hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle and put it under a bushel but on a candlestick, and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your Light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”
In the midst of all that is going on in the world, we needn’t cower in our cocoon (“put our Light under a bushel”). Instead, we should “give Light unto all that are in the house”: our “house” is the world, and we are the Light of the world. Staying true to that is our mission, no matter what is going on in the world.
If you would like a prayer to accompany being the Light of the world, you might try this: “Joyful it is to be the Light of the world. Joyful it is to know that there is the Light. Joyful it is to be centered in this Light. Joyful it is to know that the Light is my essence. Joyful it is to know that Light is the essence of all that exists. This Light is Creative Spirit. I merge with this Creative Spirit. As Creative Spirit, I am solely focused on creating Good for everyone and everything. There is a super-abundance of this Good. It flows in unending waves for the benefit of one and all. There is only ever greater, unending Good, ever expanding Good, all for the glory of God, all for the Joy of God. In the midst of turmoil and darkness on Earth, I stay focused on the Light. This Light is my true nature. This Light is my essence. From this Light I came; in this Light I am now; to this Light I return. All is Light. All is Love. All is Peace. All is Joy. Thank you, God, for making it so. Amen.”
Love and Light,
Tully
