Show the Light!

"You are the light of the world.  A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.  Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works and glorify your Father who is in heaven." -Matthew 5:14 (NASB)
When we look around us, I'm sure there's a lot we could say about the present condition of the world.  It is easy to stand and point or criticize what is happening, but we are also called to be part of the solution.  As part of a recent leadership and coaching seminar I attended, the presenter pointed to the "silent leaders" as the most often effective leaders.  It is through actions that we can set an example and lead!

Jesus reminded us of our calling to be part of the solution through our actions.  He compared His followers to the light of the world.  Light is not something we hear, but something we see.  Jesus didn't say that we all needed to stand up and preach to others, but we do need to live lives in Him and filled with good works and actions.  We should not compromise our morals or the Word of God, but we should live loving lives that reveal the greatness and power of God the Father and Jesus the Son!

Be a light and show the light of Christ through your actions!


Prayer:
Dear God-

Thank You for loving me and for sending Jesus to be my light in the world.  Help me to live so that others can see Your Light through me.  In Jesus' name I pray, amen.
