You were made to shine. In Matthew chapter five, Jesus tells the Jewish people at the time to let their light shine before men so that people would see their good works and praise God. And if that's true about the Jews and shining God's light, how much more true? Is it about Christians, those who have been born again, those who have the life of Christ living inside of them, those who have the Holy Spirit, that life and that light? How much more should we let that shine for people? And this isn't about us being selfish or self promoting or anything like that? No, in fact, it's the quite the opposite. It's to let God's light shine. If you think about it like this, in the beginning of the book of John, John says, In the beginning was the Word the Word was with God, the Word was God. He was in the beginning with God, all things were made through Him. And without Him was not anything made that was made. I might have messed that up a little bit. But interesting, in a couple of verses, it says in him talking about Jesus was life, and the life was the light of men. So those of us who have Christ living within us have the light living inside of us. How much more should we let our light shine? You were made to shine as one who's an image bearer of God, first of all, but number two, as one who has been born again in Christ, you have that light, let it shine so the whole world sees your father and glorifies Him. Have a wonderful day, shine on
