"Let It Shine, Let It Shine, Let It Shine"

A Blast From The Word
By Sandra Rhynes

“Let It Shine, Let It Shine, Let It Shine”

Matthew 5:16 Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven.

We will be burning and shining lights by our good living. Others will see Jesus in us by the way we live. Our lives must be bright shining lights, not as one about to go out. When we live a Godly life we will glorify Him. This is the power of God’s Grace in us. Not to be “holier than thou” or “look at me” attitude, but to show others that same grace. Everyone is the same at the foot of the cross. You know when Moses came down from the mountain, his face was so bright (it shone like the sun) the people were afraid. They knew Moses had been with God. Let your light shine in word and deed.

Most Holy God, I come before You with humbleness of heart. I want my light to shine before men. I want others to see You in me. I want my life to glorify You in all that I do and say. I ask all this in Your precious Son’s name. These things are the desire of my heart. Amen
