THIS LITTLE LIGHT OF MINE…
– When you refuse to love people because they’re hard to love, you forget the fact that God always loves you, even though you’re not always easy to love.
– When we give erring employees another chance when the world wouldn’t, our light shines.
– When we tell others that the most important thing in our lives is Jesus Christ and not success, and then live so they can see that it’s true, our light shines. – When we wish genuine good to all men, with the greatest good being their salvation, our light shines. – When we would rather see men saved than to make a profit from them, our light shines.
– When we keep our word in spite of the fact that it costs us dearly to do so, our light shines. – When we honour all men, even those of much lower place than God has called us to, our light shines. – When we don’t demand the privilege that our position affords us in the eyes of the world, our light shines. – When we use our money to build people, rather than our people to build money, our light shines. – When we do just what Jesus would do in the same circumstances, our light shines, and He lives.
Jesus is still The Light. He lives as we let Him shine in our good works. His light is our spiritual heritage. We have inherited it from those first disciples who sat on the hill with Jesus. He told them to let their light shine and, through them, the charge came to us. (John 17:20). This little light of mine….I’m gonna let it shine!!!! May your light so shine among men, that they may see your good works and glorify your father in Heaven. Shalom.
