Week 3: Closer to God's Mission
Day 15 | Being a Light in the World
Scripture
Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
Matthew 5:16
Jesus calls us to be lights in the world, reflecting His love, truth, and grace in everything we do. This light isn't meant to draw attention to ourselves but to point others to God. In a world often filled with darkness, our actions, attitudes, and words can be a source of hope and joy. Being a light means living out our faith out the outside, authentically, loving others, and demonstrating the character and nature of Christ. It's not about perfection but about allowing God to shine through our weaknesses and strengths.
Reflection
How can you let your light shine today? Are there areas where you can reflect Christ more clearly?
Prayer
Lord, help me to be a light in the world, reflecting Your love and truth. Use my life to bring hope and joy to those around me. Let everything I do point others to You and bring glory to Your name. Amen.
