Shining Lights: 102710

Tonight we finished our Story Time series by looking at 3 verses from Matthew 5, 14-16. In these verses Jesus tells us that we are supposed to be lights in the world. We gain the light when we start to follow him and he fills us with his light so we can become sheders of the light to the rest of the world. Often times we hide this light, this can be done by our purposefully being ashamed of God and not wanting to stand up for our belief in him, thus hiding the light so others won't see it, or it can happen when we have covers on our light, distorting and taking away the purity and strength of that light. This happens when we have sin our lives and need God to strip away those things covering our light so that it can give a clear view of Jesus to the world. It is time to start shining your light!
