How Bright is My Light

Scripture: Matthew 5: [16] In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.

Observation: God surrounds me with people every day. At work with my employees, cadets and faculty. So what do they see when they see me. Is my light so blinding they squint or is it dull and no one sees me any different than any pagan. I live my life on a dimmer switch I have days that I honor God and others where I honor me. I believe that is living my life lukewarm neither bright or dark.

Application: God has given me so much, that I need to boast about my heavenly Father to others. I look at people who stand strong in their faith no matter what they are going through and remain bright to others. That is the life I want, I pray I burn out before it’s time to go home.

Prayer: My Lord you are worthy of my best and I should be so filled with the Holy Spirit that it should simply spill out on others. Give me the opportunities to shine in the lives of those you put in my path. May I be on fire for you until you extinguish the flame.
