Let Your Light Shine

"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.” Matthew 5:16

            It’s a common saying “You may be the only bible some people read,” or “You may be the only Jesus some people see.” Imagine how different our behavior would be if we lived each day with this in mind. You see, people pay attention to our actions and whether we realize it or not our actions have the power to influence others. The question is whether you will use your influence on others for good or for bad.

Shine Bright

I believe there is something wonderful about candles that has always mesmerized humans. Even in our modern day and age we see them when they are no longer needed. Some are used for prayer and some are used to help us relax while others are used for birthday cakes. These small objects give light and something a little extra. Since this blog is titled "Shine" I wanted to share my reflection on how each of us can be a candle in the world.
