Hi everybody!
First of all I apologize for not being as consistent; life can just be crazy at timesš .
I hope you are well and keeping safe.
I wanted to talk about something that has been on my heart for a while now and what it means to me and I truly hope it helps someone today.
Enjoy;ā¤ļø
āYou are the light of the worldā Matthew 5:14āØ
In this specific verse, Jesus tells us we are the salt of the earth and light of the world.
A light is defined as a natural agent that stimulates sight and makes things visible.
Jesus expresses that we illuminate his light.
We are called to be the light of the world ; to show the good works of the Lord and to provide the same love he gives to us and express it with everyone else.
The same light that he has, is the very same light that exists in you. Do you realize how amazing that is? And Iām not exaggerating this.
But is there more to it? I usually try not to take anything literal and try to seek more of out of it.
After I read this, I now understand that I was chosen to be his light, emphasis on āHisā. That one word changes everything for me.
To be the light means that in times of darkness you offer hope, encouragement, kindness and compassion.
In a world filled with so much dark forces, you can be that anchor of hope for someone, and most importantly you can be that light for yourself.
This is why I have decided to share this. I want to remind you that you have so much in you, you are a light in this world and you shouldnāt forget that.
You donāt need any validation from anyone, you shine in your own way and I want you to always keep that in mind. Your creator says you are the light and thatās all that matters.
When your life’s light shines into the eyes of another, others will resist seeing you succeed. Don’t let others dim your light. Feel a sense of sorrow for their negativity and gratefulness for the positivity of your spirit.
I truly hope this touches someone and will remain with you forever ā¤ļø
