Daily Verse: Matthew 5:16
"Let your light so shine before man, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven."
We are all little lights of God in this world of darkness. I suppose we are to represent God in bringing a sense of righteousness and truth in this world that is often filled with falsehood and evil. When we act in kindness and goodness, we glorify God. We bring His presence into the community.
Just a side thot, Methodist Church in Singapore donated more than $500,000 to the Tsunami relief and sent a few groups of volunteers out. That's not too bad consider we have only 30,000 members. I am sure there are many churches which had acted generously too. Yet, I suppose most of the public do not know this. And there are other groups which were even featured on TV. I wonder if we Christians should be bold to tell others of our good deeds, not to boast, but to let others know that we acted in God's name, thus glorfying Him.... what do you think?
Lord, in my actions and words, I pray that I am your little light. Help me not to be careless so that I will not dim the light or even darken the world. Lead me to someone who needs to see your light so that his/her life can be brightened with your glory. Amen
