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 on 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. Matt. 5: 14-16 (NIB)
In these days I have noticed that darkness takes more space in this world. We are selfish and are looking just for our own interest. We don't know how to love one another. We don't even remember anymore what means to be in God's presence. Are we forgetting the fact, that God's presence can change our lives?"You are the light of the world". That means: what we are in Christ is the light of the world. God wants to illuminate our hearts like He illuminated the whole world in the beginning. And that is something amazing! When we spend more and more time in His illuminating presence, our hearts, lives and churches start to change. When we give our lives to God, something great will happen.
We should always have the attitude that proclaims "Come Jesus, I'm ready". God wants to use you. He would love to see you spreading His light, love and the Gospel. Don't be in the darkness, don't stay at a side. Be strong and brave, let God shine in you!
