Today we live in a kaleidoscope of governmental doctrines worldwide, some democratic, come dictatorial and others some measure between. Searching for the ultimate leadership and doctrine over history has proven to be illusive. Hope, peace, joy and love encapsulate all that is positive. Our hope shines as he solitary star for peace. The glory of the Lord gave us the way of holiness through Jesus and the light of Jesus is a comfort and joy for all who hold him in their hearts. The road of life is well lit with his righteousness and truth. Live his truth today.

Amen.

Based on the readings for the week: John 1:1-9; Jeremiah 23:5-6; Isaiah 35:1-10; John 13:34-35.
