LET THE LIGHT OF THE LORD SHINE!

” NOW NO ONE AFTER LIGHTING A LAMP COVERS IT OVER WITH A CONTAINER, OR PUTS IT UNDER A BED; BUT HE PUTS IT ON A LAMPSTAND, SO THAT THOSE WHO COME IN MAY SEE THE LIGHT.” LUKE 8:16

We should not allow ourselves to become road blocks to the light of our lives, Jesus Christ. He is the light of the world. He is the true and only way to salvation. Sometimes our lives become so busy that we allow outside forces to influence the way we live our lives. We become so involved in our jobs and social lives that we forget to allow the light of our Lord to shine through. Jesus should be in our every thought and our every action. He should be the center of our lives and the center of every decision that we make. The way we live should reflect everything He stands for. It is when we cover up the light of Jesus and shut him out that we get ourselves into trouble and fail. Our Lord has promised us that he will be with us in all situations. He has promised that he will go before us. He will shine his light and keep the path lit for our benefit. His light will shine just like the headlights of a car to show us the right way to go. If we hide the light of the Lord then we will be wandering around in the darkness not knowing the direction nor the path we are taking. This becomes very dangerous. Let us continue to build upon our faith, listen to the precious Holy Spirit for guidance and never put out the light that shines from the light of the world. PRAISE THE LORD IN ALL THINGS!
