The apostle John writes to Christians, urging them to love the Father rather than love the world. Even though there are many things that appeal to our senses in this world, there is a way of living where we trust the Father’s character and we conform to the Father’s will. Temptation seeks to pull us away from that path just as it has from the very beginning. But if we stay true to the way of faith, we will shine like stars in the darkness of the world.
