Advent Devotions - A Light Shines in the Darkness
In the northern hemisphere, December is the darkest month of the yearāand yet, we see the Light of the world shine brightly in the Bethlehem manger each Christmas. This December, WELS Womenās Ministry invites you to join us on a light-filled biblical journey through a series of daily e-mail devotions. Weāll look at passages throughout the Old and New Testaments that focus on light. Weāll examine what each passage tells us about light, and weāll marvel at how that light shines brightly in our lives today.
