The light
shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.
- John 1:5 (NLT)
Today
is Groundhog Day, a day built around watching for shadows and trying to predict
what comes next. Will winter linger, or will spring come early? We look for
signs, hoping they tell us something about the future.
But Scripture reminds us of something far more certain than a shadow.
Light has already come.
John tells us that the light shines in the darkness—not after the darkness, not once the darkness leaves, but in the middle of it. And no matter how heavy, long, or familiar that darkness feels, it cannot overcome the light.
Sometimes our days feel repetitive, like winter that just won’t end. We wake up, do the same things, carry the same worries, and wonder when something will finally change. We look for signs that life will feel lighter soon. But God isn’t asking us to predict what’s coming—He’s asking us to notice where His light already is.
Jesus doesn’t wait for perfect conditions. He shines in ordinary days, in long seasons, in moments that feel stuck. And even when we can’t see past today, His light is still at work—steady, faithful, undefeated.
So today, instead of watching for shadows, may we choose to look for the light that cannot be put out.
