Our Lord claimed, “I am The Alpha and the Omega, The Bread of Life, The Way, The
Good Shepherd.” But it was only after He claimed, “I am the Light of the World,” that He
pointed to us and said, “And you are the light of the world; let your light so shine…” We are
lights, needed in time of hurt and despair, so that instead of cussing the darkness we may
light a candle. It was recorded, “Jesus Christ is the icon (image) of the invisible God.” You
and I are the second most important “icons” of the invisible God. Through us His comfort
and hope are offered, Hi help is manifested, His embrace is felt…not only during the
Season of His Birth but throughout the year, locally and in Newtown.
