I spend my life studying light and in this Christmas season I want to share what I’ve learned. In Hebrew, the word for light is three letters. Each one carries meaning✨
Aleph- The ox head. Strength. Source. God Himself.
Vav- The nail. The connector. Joining heaven to earth.
Resh- The head. Beginning. Purpose.
Direction.
So light literally means:
God (Aleph) connects (Vav) purpose (Resh) to creation.
“Let there be light" is God's first spoken command in the Bible, found in Genesis 1:3. 3 days before
the creation of the sun. Light is God inserting HIMSELF into chaos.
It is His very nature being released into the void.
1 John 1:5 says it clearly:
"God is light, and in Him is no darkness at all."
So the first act of creation wasn't making something external.
It was God releasing His own nature into the world. Now here's where it gets personal.
If God's first creative act was releasing light And if you were made in His image
Then you were created to be a CARRIER of that same light.
A reflector of His nature.
A releaser of His creativity.
This is why Jesus said:
"You are the light of the world." (Matthew 5:14)
Everything God is by nature, you are called to express by assignment because He embedded that same light in YOU.
God's light brings clarity? Your creativity brings clarity.
God's light brings order to chaos? Your ideas bring order to someone's confusion.
God's light reveals what's hidden? Your content, your business, your calling reveals what someone couldn't see on their own. YOU are releasing light and darkness can’t survive where light is released✨
