You are the light of the world. Isn't that amazing? Do you understand? We're here to shine. To be generous with our lives and do good deeds which shine the light on Jesus. You've heard this phrase before, but you may be the only Jesus that people ever see. What do they see when they see you? Think about the last few days, the last week, when people saw you, what did they see? How about in your home; or at church? What does your boss see at work? How about our neighbors, that one that's struggling with cancer, or the elderly wife caring for her husband with alzheimer's and her kids live out of state and sometimes she sits at night, wondering if she can make it through one more day without help.

What did they see in us? Did we bring light to their darkness? I think Jesus' words are a call, a reminder that it's time to shine!
