YOU WERE ONCE DARKNESS, BUT NOW YOU ARE LIGHT IN THE LORD. - TopicsExpress



          

YOU WERE ONCE DARKNESS, BUT NOW YOU ARE LIGHT IN THE LORD. LIVE AS CHILDREN OF LIGHT, FOR THE FRUIT OF THE LIGHT CONSISTS IN ALL GOODNESS, RIGHTEOUSNESS AND TRUTH. ( EPHESIANS 5:8-9 * NIV ) Dear Brethren, Now as Children of Light our actions should reflect our faith, and shine brightly to others. We should never be afraid to show our faith no matter where we are, or who we are with. After all we are beacons of Gods Love shining out into dark World that is searching for love in all the wrong places. A World that is full of people without love, hope and faith. Therefore our Savior Jesus Christ stressed this truth in the Sermon on the Mount, for He said YOU ARE THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. A CITY ON A HILL CANNOT BE HIDDEN. NEITHER DO PEOPLE LIGHT A LAMP AND PUT IT UNDER A BOWL. INSTEAD THEY PUT IT ON ITS STAND, AND IT GIVES LIGHT TO EVERYONE IN THE HOUSE. ( MATTHEW 5:14-15 ) Further Brethren, you probably have known people that seem to light up a room when they enter, well; IN THE SAME WAY, LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE BEFORE MEN, THAT THEY MAY SEE YOUR GOOD DEEDS AND PRAISE YOUR FATHER IN HEAVEN. ( MATTHEW 5:16 ) Now you may be thinking my light is a dim one. Well, I believe that our dim light is magnified by the immense mirror of Gods Love. Thus it truly shines brightly when we tell others about our Heavenly Father, and show goodness toward the people in our lives! So try it today and see for yourself, for if everyone would light just one little candle what a bright World this would be! Amen
