Shine baby shine

“In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.”Matthew‬ ‭5‬:‭16‬ ‭NLT‬‬

When I was small I’d often stay with my grandparents at their boarding house. The toilet was way down the back yard. At night this was a scary trip. My grandmother gave me a small torch to use. A torch elimates all the scary imaginations. I had the habit of sleep walking. One night my grandmother awoke to see me at the foot of her bed shining the torch at her. It was a freakish experience for her, especially as I was in a trance.

As a Christian I am told I carry the light of God. I need to shine that light in a way that does not freak people out. Jesus spoke of good deeds. The importance of any testimony is the deeds that accompany the words. Am I loving, kind, considerate? Do I respect all people? 

By staying connected to my God and loving Him I will automatically love others or my love for Him is fake.

Today as I go out into the streets of Nepal may I shine the light of God for all to see! May ai see people and recognise them as valuable! Amen!
