Jesus metaphors

I love how Jesus describes Himself in the Gospels.  Sometimes it's conceptual. (John 14:6), focus on "way", "truth", "life".  On another occasion He used the example of "Living Water". (John 4:10).  When He speaks about light and darkness, it is even more powerful.  There is nothing like what happens in the physical world when you turn on a light in a completely dark room.  Jesus declares:

John 8:12    Jesus spoke to them again: “I am the light of the world. Anyone who follows me will never walk in the darkness but will have the light of life.”

We can have the light of life because of Jesus!  Praise God!
