“You are the light of the world. Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” – —Matthew 5:14-16.
These words of Jesus from the Sermon on the Mount remind us that our lives must not be allowed to be simply neutral. We will either point others away from God or show them that allegiance to God is essential. We must have a passion for walking in God’s light. If we are going to reflect his light, we must live in that light. Let’s make an intentional effort today to shine the light of God’s holiness, love, and grace in all we do and say around others so they can find their way to the one who is truly the Light of the World (John 8:12).
