Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:16

 

As I get older, I depend on a certain amount of light to read and see things, such as the small print in a book or the back of the tv when connecting wires. Light makes it possible to see in the darkest spots. Today’s society is fascinated with lights, especially LED lights. You see them on trucks, motorcycles and yard décor around each holiday. Light has become a popular thing these days.

 

As a Christian, you should take just as much enjoyment in sharing the light of Christ into the dark places of your world. At work, home, grocery store, everyday interactions with people, even at church. Those outside the faith will not be able to see the wonderous works of the Lord, unless His children openly display that light. Now, you don’t have to grab a bullhorn and announce your Christianity, but your actions and words should be the first thing people notice when they greet you.

 

But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light. 1 Peter 2:9

 

You have been chosen by God, a royal priesthood! Let your words and actions speak of the joy and blessings that you possess as one of God’s chosen so others will notice and want what you have to offer them through Jesus Christ. God bless!
