John 12 I Am the Light of the World

You might want to share this quote with your family as you demonstrate the power of light in dark places:

John 12:46. Being protected by the light Jesus Christ gives

Elder Robert D. Hales of the Quorum of the Twelve Apostles taught about the protection made available by the light Jesus Christ provides:

“We are engaged in a battle between the forces of light and darkness. …

“The Lord is our light and, literally, our salvation (see Psalm 27:1). Like the sacred fire that encircled the children in 3 Nephi (see 3 Nephi 17:24), His light will form a protective shield between you and the darkness of the adversary as you live worthy of it. You need that light. We need that light. Carefully study the scriptures and For the Strength of Youth and listen to the teachings of your parents and leaders. Then, by obedience to wise counsel, learn to claim the protective light of the gospel as your own” (“Out of Darkness into His Marvelous Light,” Ensign,May 2002, 70).
