This little light of mine, are you letting it shine? Matthew 5:14-16 “You are the light of the world. A city 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 men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.”
Jesus taught that Christians are like lights set on a hill and that the light would be no good if it were hidden. Even a small light in darkness will make a difference. There is no Christian who is less important or has less to do. All light, no matter the size, will shatter the darkness. If we hide our light, however, it will have no effect on the dark world. The light spreads, as we encounter others in the world the light can spread. What is a way you can be a light in the darkness this week?
Sunday night the junior high students split up and helped deliver some of the Thanksgiving food baskets, an example of them shining their light in a small little way.
