Matthew 5:16 "Let your light so shine!"

Light in the Darkness


Matthew 5: 1-16

And seeing the multitudes, he went up into a mountain: and when he was set, his disciples came unto him:

And he opened his mouth, and taught them, saying,

Blessed are the poor in spirit: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are they that mourn: for they shall be comforted.

Blessed are the meek: for they shall inherit the earth.

Blessed are they which do hunger and thirst after righteousness: for they shall be filled.

Blessed are the merciful: for they shall obtain mercy.

Blessed are the pure in heart: for they shall see God.

Blessed are the peacemakers: for they shall be called the children of God.

Blessed are they which are persecuted for righteousness' sake: for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

Blessed are ye, when men shall revile you, and persecute you, and shall say all manner of evil against you falsely, for my sake.

Rejoice, and be exceeding glad: for great is your reward in heaven: for so persecuted they the prophets which were before you.

Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.

Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.

Neither do men light a candle, and put it under a bushel, but on a candlestick; and it giveth light unto all that are in the house.

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.



Thank you Lord!

The intensity of our spiritual light is proportional to the degree of our relationship with the Source of Power - God, the Almighty.

Beautiful word @pilgrimtraveler Jesus also uses the figure of light to illustrate the effect believers will have if they follow the example of the Lord and live as God commands ... Jesus clearly explained that light is good works. And when he speaks of "good works" he does not only refer to acts of charity and charity; rather, it refers to all good action that comes from obedience to God and the fulfillment of his commandments

Amen!

Continue to be a blessing @pilgrimtraveler ! Resteemed!

Lord let your light continue to shine upon us
