Matthew 5:14 : Today's Verse : Devotionals : HEARTLIGHT®

-> Will you help us Open a World of Opportunity?

Saturday, December 4, 1999

You are the light of the world. A city on a hill cannot be hidden.

Matthew 5:14, New International Version

Phil Ware For Christians, there is no playing hide and seek with the world. Having been rescued from darkness, we have to let our light shine. That sometimes means that others see God's light reflected in us and learn to glorify God through us. At other times, however, it means that we stand out in a world of darkness and become targets because of our faith. Either way, there is no place to hide. We are light in a world of darkness; we cannot help but shine!
