CALLED TO BE LIGHT


Matthew 5:14 says, “Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid. Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.”

We are called to be light to a dark world. As the little children’s song goes “This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine. This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine. This little light of mine, I’m gonna let it shine. Let it shine, let it shine, let it shine. Hide it under a bushel ~ NO! ~ I’m gonna let it shine. Hide it under a bushel ~ NO! Hide it under a bushel NO! I’m gonna let it shine, let it shine, let it shine, let it shine.”

As you go through your day, wherever you are, be aware that you are bringing God’s light to others. You may never realize what a smile or a kind word will do for someone in darkness. Look for opportunities to shine – God will shine through you.

Keep up the good work!
