 On this night shines the brightest light! We walked in darkness and dwelt in deep darkness. But now we see a great light; on us it shines! The Christmas trees are up and decorated, the garland is strung, the lights are lit. Presents are wrapped and delicious food is prepared. All is ready for family and friends to gather on this holy night to celebrate the greatest gift of all, Jesus, the Christ Child. Tonight the prophet Isaiah speaks to us about deep darkness but then of an even brighter light. He directs us, who live in this dark and sinful world, with the wonderful and encouraging Word of God to that light that shines the brightest. That’s what this night is all about. On this holy night shines the brightest light, a light that God sends into each and every corner of this world, shining into its darkness so that all may see! Christmas Eve! Merry Christmas!
