Matthew 5
14 “You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. 15 Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. 16 In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
Say those words aloud please
"I am the light of the world and
I will shine for God's glory"
Imagine this in Genesis 1 when God decided to bring life to what he had created
He said "Let there be light"
Light consists of photons which are tiny packets of energy. The light testifies of God's majesty.
Imagine this no matter how dark a room is even the smallest speck of light (the example could be the strike of a match) transforms the darkness.
When we walk in the light, filled with God's power and love, we will make a difference wherever we go.
So how do we shine as light?
We have the power of the Holy Spirit filling us and shining through us.
No matter how limiting the circumstances may seem, we always have something to give - we can always give love and share kindness.
If we wake up each day, with a mindset to be a blessing so as to shine the light so God can be glorified. I guarantee you God will make the way for you and provide everything needed for one to be effective in increasing his Kingdom.
Go!
Think no more of what you don't have or what is not right.
Even in the deepest darkness places one single act of love or kindness can change lives, bring hope and spread the gospel.
You see we might get it wrong, we might think that only those individuals standing on pulpits can make a difference. The largest and most effective ministry is not necessarily bible passages quoted or expounded on but it is every action governed by the agape love that truly makes a difference. Small random acts of love and kindness can make such a BIG difference in this world.
I pray that you will be filled with God's love -God's agape love. This kind of love cannot be contained it automatically flows to others.
I pray for you to shine brighter and brighter so the glory of God will overtake this earth
Amen
Walk good in Christ
Till we meet again
