“No one after lighting a lamp puts it in a cellar or under a basket, but on a stand, so that those who enter may see the light. Your eye is the lamp of your body. When your eye is healthy, your whole body is full of light, but when it is bad, your body is full of darkness. Therefore be careful lest the light in you be darkness. If then your whole body is full of light, having no part dark, it will be wholly bright, as when a lamp with its rays gives you light.” (Luke 11:33-36 ESV)
The interesting part to this is we are the light…
So our lives can not be hidden, or put under a basket or locked away in a cellar. Are lives are to shine before others so they can see our good works and give glory to God in heaven.
We need to be connected with God so that the actions of our lives draw others to Him and not lead them to a place they are not connected to Him. Our lives are lights to the world and they must shine!
