Let your light shine forth

It's 08.57 am on the 17th of October 2014 and I am sat with a few selected  parents at my son's school,but the reason we are really sat here is because our children won the star of the week award for behaving the best in class and winning above all the others and completing their challenges given by the teachers,in other words their light shone above the others.

Matthew 5:14 says  :

You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hid.

As I sat waiting for my son to receive his reward,the children from his class and some other classes sang a song ,a very interesting song.The words to the song was:

(when two friends meet there is sunshine,when life is sweet there is sunshine,there is sunshine in my heart)

In other words there is sunshine in every situation.How many knows that's true ?as vessels of Christ whether we know it or not,Our light out shines any situation,and the darkness upon the face of the earth.Jesus made that clear in Matthew 15:14,so how do we activate the light of Christ?it's already activated,it's in our smile,in our touch,it's in our words,actions and conversations,it's in our DNA,it's walking with us and in us.

Jesus is the light of the world which way supercedes the light of the sun,the places where the sun don't shine,Jesus shines,the places where the sun don't go Jesus goes.Remember the words of that song and when you meet your friends let your light shine,when you are sitting in STAR BUCKS let your light shine,when life is at it's best let your light shine,when those bills come in let your light shine,when you get provoked let your light shine but most of all let the light/Jesus shine always in your heart.

shalom and love
