"Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven." Matt 5:16
Beloved, we are called to be examples. Through his sacrifice and our faith in him, Christ rescued us from the darkness and filled us with his holy light. As the ultimate source of fire, he lit each of us as candles to, in turn, light others. As those filled with light, we are to push back the darkness and rescue others from it by pointing them to Jesus.
By letting our light shine, others will be able to see. They will be able to see past their circumstances and witness the joy that can be seen in us. They will be able to see that we have been equipped to accomplish the will of God. They will see eternity through the things that we do. It is not, however, about us. It is about glorifying God.
When others ask who we are and why we do the good and beneficial things we do, the answer is both simple and profound: because of Him that made us and because of Cavalry. All we do and all we are is purposed and designed to glorify God. So be sure to let your light shine!
In Revival,
Lee
