Jesus taught his followers on a hillside to "let their light shine"...
“You are the light of the world. A city set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do people light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
Matthew 5:14-16 ESV
This past week Lois and I were able to pick up Grandson Haakon from pre-school. When he got home he was so glad to see his Daddy. He went over to his pile of books and grabbed his favorite...his Daddy read to him and sang the song in the book..."This Little Light of Mine, I'm Going To Let It Shine". He held his little index finger up as his Daddy sang, "Let it shine, Let it shine, Let it shine!
Passing the light on is done everyday in so many ways. Jesus' Light shined all over us in that precious moment with Haakon and Justin.
May Jesus, The Light of the world, shine on all of us. "Shine Jesus Shine!"
