Let your light shine before men.

29LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE BEFORE MEN, THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR GOOD WORKS AND GIVE GLORY TO YOUR FATHER WHO IS IN HEAVEN. MATTHEW  5:6 *NKJV

YOU WERE ONCE DARKNESS, NOW YOU ARE LIGHT IN THE LORD.  WALK AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT. For, IF WE WALK IN THE LIGHT AS HE IS IN THE LIGHT, WE HAVE FELLOWSHIP WITH ONE ANOTHER, AND THE BLOOD OF JESUS CHRIST HIS SON CLEANSES US FROM ALL SIN. EPHESIANS 5:8EPHESIANS 5:8
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV

8 For ye were sometimes darkness, but now are ye light in the Lord: walk as children of light:  

WP-Bible plugin
& 1 JOHN 1:6-71 JOHN 1:6-7
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV

6 If we say that we have fellowship with him, and walk in darkness, we lie, and do not the truth: 7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanseth us from all sin.  

WP-Bible plugin

Now how do we walk in the light?  Well, your little light shines every time you smile at someone, or do a good deed for them. Also when you take the time to help someone in need, or share God's Word with another. When you reach out to someone who is suffering with pain or sorrow.  Thus when, through you actions, you show others what being a Christian is all about.  Thus: LOVE YOU NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.  MATTHEW 19:19MATTHEW 19:19
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV

19 Honour thy father and thy mother: and, Thou shalt love thy neighbour as thyself.  

WP-Bible plugin

Now, if you think your little light is a dim one, well perhaps, as I believe, our little lights are magnified in the immense mirror of God's Love.  Perhaps His reflectors are our hearts, spreading the flame of kindness to one another.  Therefore, why not shine you light on others today?  You will not only help them but it will warm your heart as well!

In Closing, just think, "If everyone would light, just one little candle, what a bright World this would be."  Amen.

DECLARE HIS GLORY AMONG THE NATIONS, HIS MARVELOUS DEEDS AMONG ALL PEOPLES. FOR GREAT IS THE LORD AND MOST WORTHY OF PRAISE; HE IS TO BE FEARED [revered} ABOVE ALL gods. ASCRIBE TO THE LORD THE GLORY DUE HIS NAME. BRING AN OFFERING AND COME BEFORE HIM; WORSHIP THE LORD IN THE SPLENDOR OF HIS HOLINESS. ( 1 CHRONICLES 16:23-251 CHRONICLES 16:23-25

23 Sing unto the LORD, all the earth; shew forth from day to day his salvation. 24 Declare his glory among the heathen; his marvellous works among all nations. 25 For great is the LORD, and greatly to be praised: he also is to be feared above all gods.

As we celebrate this day let us not lose sight of the first Christmas present ever given, that being God giving us His Son, our Savior Jesus Christ, to dwell with us!

So let us not get lost in all the hustle and bustle of this time of year. Instead, let us be mindful of all our blessings, and share the Christmas Spirit with others. Remembering:

THE GREATEST Gift

The greatest gift at Christmas  time
Is one we all may give -

A friendly smile that helps to make
Life easier to live.

A kindly thought, a helping hand,
To show someone we care

And let them know how much it means
For us to have them here.

The greatest gift at Christmastime
Costs not a lot to buy -

It's being a good neighbor
As days and months go by:

It's offering a shoulder
When someone needs a lift,

And so I pray this Christmas Day
That this may be your gift!
Poet, Grace E. Easley

May you have a Very Merry Christmas, and a Wonderful New Year!

*NKJV

Indeed we are God's Children for GOD SENT FORTH HIS SON, BORN OF A WOMAN, BORN UNDER THE LAW, TO REDEEM THOSE WHO WERE UNDER THE LAW, THAT WE MIGHT RECEIVE THE ADOPTION AS SONS. AND BECAUSE YOU ARE SONS, GOD HAS SENT FORTH THE SPIRIT OF HIS SON INTO OUR HEARTS. GALATIANS 4:4-6GALATIANS 4:4-6
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV

4 But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5 To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons. 6 And because ye are sons, God hath sent forth the Spirit of his Son into your hearts, crying, Abba, Father.

The Apostle Paul used adoption or "son ship" to illustrate to us, the believer's new relationship with God. For when a person becomes a Christian, he or she gains all the privileges and responsibilities of a Child in God's family.

One of these privileges is being lead by the Spirit. Now we may not always feel as though we belong to God, but the Holy Spirit is our witness! For His inward presence reminds us of who we are and encourages us with God's love. For it is written: NOW HOPE DOES NOT DISAPPOINT, BECAUSE THE LOVE OF GOD HAS BEEN POURED OUT IN OUR HEARTS BY THE HOLY SPIRIT WHO WAS GIVEN TO US. ROMANS 5:5ROMANS 5:5
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV

5 And hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

So, have a wonderful day remembering that you are indeed a Child of God Almighty, and an heir as well. For it is written: YOU ARE NO LONGER A SLAVE, BUT A SON; AND SINCE YOU ARE A SON, GOD HAS MADE YOU ALSO AN HEIR. Now that should make your day, Indeed! Amen. GALATIANS 4:7GALATIANS 4:7
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV

7 Wherefore thou art no more a servant, but a son; and if a son, then an heir of God through Christ.

*NIV

God's love for each one of us is tremendous indeed! For every child of His is very important to Him! So today I will share with you something that one of our Sister's sent to me last week. It speaks of God's Tremendous love for each of us.

To you my reader,

If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it.
If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it.
He sends you flowers every spring.
He sends you a sunrise every morning.
Whenever you want to talk, He listens.
He can live anywhere in the Universe, but He chose your heart.

Now God didn't promise days without pain, laughter without sorrow, sun without rain, but He did promise strength for the day, comfort for the tears, and light for the way.

So face it, He is crazy about you!

Therefore let us; GIVE THANKS TO THE LORD, FOR HE IS GOOD; HIS LOVE ENDURES FOREVER! Amen. 1 CHRONICLES 16:341 CHRONICLES 16:34
English: King James Version (1611) - KJV

34 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good; for his mercy endureth for ever.
