Let your light so shine before men that they may see your moral excellence and your praiseworthy, noble and good deeds and recognize and honor and praise and glorify your Father Who is in heaven. -Matt. 5:16.
As Christians we need to live up to who we profess to the world that we are. The world is not reading Matthew, Mark, Luke or John or any other book of the Holy Bible. The world is reading us. We are the only Bible some people in the world will ever read and so we need to be the light of the world our Lord Jesus commanded us to be.
Let your light so shine in the world. Be the one to stretch a helping hand to someone who needs it. We've got to be a little kinder and show a little kindness everywhere we go. Shine our light for someone else to see. Then if we show a little kindness, we'll overlook the blindness, of the narrow minded people on the narrow minded streets of the world.
Let us live our lives to be the best, holy (separated to God), consecrated, sanctified child of God we can be; even in the face of criticism and humiliation from others. Our God will be more pleased with us for so treated they our Savior. The world may hate you no matter how much good you do. So what? You're not a part of this world. Be of good cheer, Jesus overcame the world and so have we. Continue to do good even to save just one out of the world.
Prayer: Father help us to be obedient to your command to let our light shine no matter how we are being treated while doing it as we ought to turn the other cheek when we get smote on one side. Amen.
Encouragement: Continue to do good in spite of it all. After all God is whom we are pleasing and His reward is above our thoughts or requests. God Bless You.
