Shine The Light


     Are you ready to shine? Did you know Jesus calls His followers the light of the world? Amazing. Are you filled with the joy, the hope, the promises of Jesus? I hope so. The world is becoming more and more dark. Evil is running its course. Christians will be persecuted because of Jesus, but He continually shines through the darkness, in the hearts of believers and with the power of the Holy Spirit.

“You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead, they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:14-16

     With the light and love of Christ shining through us, we can affect the people around us. Let’s shine this week with hope, the hope of Jesus in a dark world.

Father,

You ask us to shine our light before others. Fill us to the brim with the Holy Spirit and the living water of the Word of God, so that it overflows to the world around us. You give us so much. How can we not share?

In Jesus name,

Amen
