You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. (Matthew 5:14 ESV)
Over the weekend, we had the great privilege to share music and worship the Lord with a number of our friends. One of the songs we shared was the song, We Are, recorded by Kari Jobe.
The words are so powerful: We are the light of the world. We are the city on a hill. We are to let our light shine, to let Christ shine through us.
How will others see Jesus in us if we don’t allow His light to shine through us? If we are living a life that brings glory to Him, then our lives will be an automatic reflection of His light shining through us and outward to others, just as light flows outward from a Iighthouse.
Don’t be afraid of what you might say or do to show others the love of the Lord. His love shining through you will light the way!
"We are told to let our light shine, and if it does, we won't need to tell anybody it does. Lighthouses don't fire cannons to call attention to their shining - they just shine."
- Dwight L. Moody
Blessings to you,
