Our Lives Are Open Books

The Bible uses the term "light" on many different occasions.

In Matthew 5:14-16, Jesus used the illustration of light to challenge and remind Christians that their lives are open books.

Jesus said, "You are the light of the world. . . Don't hide your light. . . Let it shine for all to see. . . so that everyone will praise your heavenly father."

Being a light to the world is a high calling! It's pretty wild to realize that you may be the only Christian your friends will ever meet.

Are you shining brightly? If not, what are a few things you could do to become a stronger light for God?
