READ: Matthew 5:13-16
Key Scripture: You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden (Mat 5:14)
THOUGHTS
A lamp is never lit to be hidden. The sun is always seen during the day and the moon and stars are never to be hidden. Every man is a star but it takes each man to make himself shine. To shine like the light, you must discover yourself. If this discovery is not done, one will be in the shadow forever. When you discover yourself, you will work on your discovery then you will dazzle and illuminate. Shining as the light means your impact on yourself, your family, your neighbours, and your world at large. What is the world benefiting from you? Do not forget, Jesus is the light and you ought to shine like Jesus. You must do the things that Jesus did like feeding the hungry and accepting those who were rejected. When you do all these, you’re already shining like the light. Shining like the light doesn't mean wealth in physical terms; it means wealth in the spiritual. By this, emulate Jesus, emulate the Virgin Mary, emulate Mother Theresa. Every living soul is a light; therefore make yourself shine as the light - Jesus
