Reflection:
Jesus didn't say, "You could be a light" or "You should be a light" — He declared, "You are the light of the world." It's not about what we do, but who we are as children of God.
Imagine a single candle in a pitch-black room. It doesn't take much to push back the darkness, does it? That's the power of your light, friend. Even when life feels dim, your faith has the power to illuminate the lives of those around you.
Maybe you're struggling, doubting, or feeling like your light is barely a flicker. But remember, the source of your light isn't you; it's Christ within you. He is the one who shines through your kindness, your compassion, your willingness to love and serve others.
So let your light shine, not because you have to, but because you can't help it. Be a beacon of hope in a weary world, and don't be afraid to let your light shine, however dim it may feel. You might just be the light someone needs to find their way home.
Ask Yourself:
In what ways can you shine your light for Jesus today?
What can prevent you from shining for Him?
