You are the LIGHT of the World!

"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 give light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:14-16

The following is a beautiful poem by Anne Johnson Flint

LIGHT
His lamp am I, to shine where He shall say,

And lamps are not for sunny rooms,

Nor for the light of day;

But for dark places of the earth,

Where shame and crime and wrong have birth;

Or for the murky twilight gray

Where wandering sheep have gone astray;

Or where the light of faith grows dim,

And souls are groping after Him.

And sometimes a flame we find,

Clear shining through the night

So bright we do not see the lamp,

But only see the light:

So may I shine -- His light the flame,

that men may glorify His name.

"Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Matthew 5:16

That is our calling...to be a light for truth in a dark world. May you bring light into someones dark world today.

Love and blessings,
Roger
