A light has dawned

Jesus began preaching. We are to believe in him and to love one another as he told us to do. He is the light that has dawned, light that is to shine in our love for one another. His message to us is simple: repent, because God’s kingdom is near – its fullness for each of us is but a single heartbeat away.
