Thought for today;
Salt is a hidden but powerful influence. Light is a visible and revealing influence. JESUS tells us that we are not only to be the salt of the earth, but also the light of the world. We are called to make a visible impact on the world around us.
Scriptures and Verses;
Matt 5/13-16 Ye are the salt of the earth: but if the salt have lost his savour, wherewith shall it be salted? it is thenceforth good for nothing, but to be cast out, and to be trodden under foot of men.
Ye are the light of the world. A city that is set on an hill cannot be hid.
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.
Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your FATHER which is in heaven.
Conclusion;
We cannot benefit the world when we are like the world. We are to reflect the light of JESUS to the world. And what is this light? It is the light of salvation, the light of eternal life, the light of the knowledge of GOD, the light of the joy of salvation, the light of hope, and the light that shines in darkness. It is the light that opens the eyes of the blind and causes them to see the light of the glory of GOD in the face of JESUS CHRIST.In other words, we must intentionally let our lights shine. We must determine to be deliberately evangelistic through good deeds and acts of kindness. When people see that we are people who care because we are people who know HIM, they will see more clearly. The light will shine on them.
Blessings and Favor be stored upon each of you!
love you, and so does our FATHER, yours in CHRIST
