This Little Light Of Mine

Jesus said we are the light of the world, called to shine in places of darkness. Our light may seem small and insignificant, but when it burns with the fire of God’s love, it brings warmth, hope, and direction to others. Every action and act of kindness, every word of encouragement, and every prayer offered in faith becomes a beam of His light.

Letting our light shine means living unashamed of the gospel and refusing to hide our faith. The world needs the light within us, especially when fear and confusion cloud so many hearts. We shine not to draw attention to ourselves but to reflect the glory of Christ who lives in us.

The Bible says, “Let your light shine before men so that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:16 TLB). Even a small light can brighten the darkest night.
