Reflections

Jesus says He is the “Light of the World,” but then He also says we are also the “Light of the World.” I always figured we are more like the moon. We can shine brightly at times, but it’s not actually our light…we are just reflecting the light of the Son. 

Whatever you do today, make sure your actions and words are reflecting the Light. Maybe even ask yourself this question: Who needs some LIGHT today?

“Here’s another way to put it: You’re here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I make you light-bearers, you don’t think I’m going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I’m putting you on a light stand. Now that I’ve put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you’ll prompt people to open up with God, this generous Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-16 MSG)
