Light of the world
Light draws attention. Even when an attempt is made to hide it, it still finds a way to announce itself through the slightest opening or transparency. It is not to be hidden. A light source can be in one place, yet the illumination it gives will permeate a very large area. Take a look at the sun, it's distance from the earth and consider how bright sunlight is.
God is Light; in Him there is no darkness at all(I John 1:5). In the spiritual realm, there is one God, who alone is Light. Outside of Him is darkness. If you are separated from Him, you are in darkness. In Him, you are in Light and you are the light of the world, not of your own merits but because Christ, and God through Christ, live in you. When your light shines before men, good deeds manifest. So, good deeds are the physical products of the spiritual Light in you(Remember: God is Light). Men will see your good deeds and have no option than to glorify your Father who is in heaven(Matthew 5:14-16). If we claim to have fellowship with Him and yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth(I John1:6)(NIV).
If we really want to please God, it is important that we seek to know what is expected of the children of God, the children of light.
May God bless you as you manifest Him to the world henceforth.
