For as long as I can remember I have loved the scripture in Matthew 5:16- “Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and glorify your Father which is in Heaven.”
Maybe the reason I loved that scripture was because that was something I wanted to achieve. I didn’t like being in the spotlight for most of my life. In fact I did everything possible to not be noticed. I know this was because I felt I had no worth! So for all of you reading this post, please know right now that God doesn’t make junk. Every person who was ever born has great value and worth!
Think for a minute about the word ‘Light‘. Light is the opposite of darkness. Light is brilliant, it’s warm, it’s inviting, it’s comforting. Light enlightens. Light is goodness. Light leads the way! Light is a reassuring beacon!
No matter who you are or what your circumstances are, you are the son or daughter of a King. You have worth and value. You have much goodness to offer. Letting your light shine can attract others to follow. Find that light within you then share it with the world!!! This world needs you! You have within you the Light of Christ. Jesus Christ is the Light that shineth in darkness. You can trust that His Light will always be there for you.
