Don’t dim your light to make the world comfortable.

It’s not our light anyway. It’s Jesus’ light that shines in us and through us!

Matthew 5:14-16

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

15 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.

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

Jesus is the light that shineth in all believers.  Never apologize for the light that shines in you, no matter who it makes uncomfortable! It was God who called you out of darkness into His light…to be a light for Him in a dark world! 

Don’t dim your light to fit in or be accepted by the wrong crowd. 

We were chosen to live differently, to be set apart, vessels for Jesus!

The light that lives in us is not about us, self-promotion or status, but to be a witness to the lost. 

Never be ashamed to tell your story! It was God who took my mess and turned it into a message!

My tests into a testimony to help others! 

Shine for JESUS that lost souls will be won to Christ by you and saved by Jesus!!! 

We, as children of the light, should be sharing the goodness of Jesus Christ by the way we love, the way we treat others, the way we talk, and the life we live. 

God didn’t call us to be a show boat for self, but a light for Him!  We are the only Bible some will ever read!

“Be The Light!”

Everyone will not appreciate or accept you, but that’s ok. Keep being the light!

Greater is he that’s in you than he that’s in the world.

Sometimes rejection and persecution can cause us to push back, but no matter who is bothered and uncomfortable, Jesus’ light shines in you. We must allow God’s Holy Spirit to control us and not our flesh!!  We must allow our lights to shine no matter where we go or who doesn’t like it!

Prayer: Father, we thank you for your grace and mercy. Forgive us for all our sins, and help us to be a light for you. In Jesus’ Name, Amen.
