Shining Light Verse from Matthew

Today let us meditate on His light that is within us, and for that we should feel honored and thank Him.   We are His vessels and He desires to radiate that light each and everyday we serve Him.   We live in a world in which there is darkness and there are so many  that do not know Him.    How else will they know there is light if we do not allow Him to shine through us.
 
 

Matthew 5:14-16 ( Amplified )

“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden.

Nor do men light a lamp and put it under a peck measure, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house.

Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble, and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and glorify your Father Who is in heaven.”

 

I think God is calling each and everyone of us as believers to shine and bloom where we are planted.  In the plan of God, He has wonderful desires  to use each one of us differently and uniquely. We should never compare how God chooses to use us to how He works through others. This is not a competition, it is command….we are lights and we are to shine! Today I encourage you to shine for Him through every word and deed you do. As He continues to mold and make you into His image He will be faithful to show Himself through you that others may see how awesome He is.

 
 
 
Father, we thank You that you have chosen us to  be carriers of Your beautiful, life giving light!   As we do good deeds and exhibit moral excellence, we pray that those that see this will be drawn to You that they may honor and praise Your Name.   In Jesus Name, amen.
