Light Shining Bright

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. 

Matthew 5:16 KJV

So let your light shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 5:16 Douay Rheims

So shine your light before men, that they see your good works, and glorify  your Father that is in heavens.  Matthew 5:16 Wycliffe

I am reminded everyday by the Lord to be a light to a dark fallen world.  Ever where we look darkness invades our space.  Time wasting away as if being attracted to Darkness was their only option.  Before Jesus came into my life. I was one of them.  Darkness seemed like the only option or path to choose; after all, it was not possible a God existed.  

I remember what is written in Revelation and look to our present day events like the Virus.  What an irony is people losing their jobs because they wont get vaccinated with a 99% survival rate.  Revelation tells us in the end times a person who does not take the mark will not be able to buy or sell things.  Sound familiar.  No job, no income.  Does this means the end times are upon us?  Not for me to say, is it a coincidence or is there more to come.  What I can tell you is the end times will be much worse than how we are living today especially Christians who do not take the mark.  

There are a few stories in the news where people waiting on major surgery and transplant lists will not get there surgery unless they are vaccinated.  So much for the Hippocratic Oath to treat those in need with the best available medicine, technology, and knowledge.  Darkness looms even in Hospitals, Jobs, everywhere.  Emptiness of the soul.  

What can we do as Christians?  Be the light, shine the light on the good through Jesus.  Let people see the light that is in you and give praise to the Lord.  Be a blessing to those around you, it can be little things like buy someone food who is hungry, give a blanket, say a kind word, be the opposite of the darkne
