Christian Life is like photography

Would any photographer shoot a wedding in total darkness? Without hearing the answer, you can easily guess that the answer is no.
No photographer is silly enough to shoot a subject that is not visible. A source of light must be present. It holds the most integral part of the equation. In other words cameras completely rely on the light. And that explains why even the most expensive and sophisticated camera lens today still uses clear glass to allow the most valuable light into the camera body. Without the light, no matter how faint it is_ photography can not exist.

The same thing applies to Christian faith. We are lost without Christ. He is the Light. He is also The Way, the Truth and the Life. We need Him in our lives. Believing in Him that He died for our sins makes a big difference in how we see the world around us. And just like photography, it is the light that brings out the details, contrast and the colors in any photograph.
