Let your LIGHT shine before men.
Jun 6th
YOU WERE ONCE DARKNESS, BUT NOW YOU ARE LIGHT IN THE LORD. LIVE AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT, FOR THE FRUIT OF THE LIGHT CONSISTS IN ALL GOODNESS, RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH. EPHESIANS 5:8-9 * NIV
As Childern of Light our actions shoul reflect our faith, and shine brightly to others. We should never be afraid to show our faith no matter where we are, or who we are with. After all we are beacons of God’s Love shining out into dark World that is searching for love in all the wrong places. A World that is full of people without love, hope and faith.
Therefore our Savior Jesus Christ stressed this truth in the Sermon on the Mount, for He said “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.” MATTHEW 5:14-15
Further, you probably have known people that seem to light up a room when they enter, well, IN THE SAME WAY, LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE BEFORE MEN, THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR GOOD DEEDS AND PRAISE YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN. MATTHEW 5:16
Now you may be thinking “my light is a dim one.” Well, I believe that our dim light is magnified by the immense mirror of God’s Love. Thus it truly shines brightly when we tell others about our Heavenly Father, and show goodness toward the people in our lives! So try it today and see for yourself, for if everyone would light just one little candle what a bright World this would be! Amen
Thankful

AS THE SCRIPTURE SAYS, ANYONE WHO TRUSTS IN HIM WILL NEVER BE PUT TO SHAME. FOR THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JEW AND GENTILE-THE SAME LORD IS LORD OF ALL AND RICHLY BLESSES ALL WHO CALL ON HIM. ROMANS 10:11-12 *NIV
We all are guilty of forgetting our blessings once in a while, and not thanking our Heavenly Father for the many blessings that He has given to us. This is even though; FROM THE FULLNESS OF HIS GRACE WE HAVE ALL RECEIVED ONE BLESSING AFTER ANOTHER. JOHN 1:16
Dr. Norman Vincent Peale once wrote, that if you spend two minutes each morning counting all of your blessings, you will find that the day will turn out well! So why not try that today, and while you are counting them remember to thank God for them. After all through Him all our blessings flow indeed!
Therefore; THANKS BE TO GOD FOR HIS INCREDIBLE GIFTS, 2 CORINTHIANS 9:15 and when you thank Him make sure that you are; ALWAYS GIVING THANKS TO GOD THE FATHER FOR EVERYTHING, IN THE NAME OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. EPHESIANS 5:20
Now, may; THE LORD BLESS YOU AND KEEP YOU; THE LORD MAKE HIS FACE TO SHINE UPON YOU AND BE GRACIOUS TO YOU. Amen. NUMBERS 6:24
