Jesus said, " You are the light of the world. Let your light so shine before others so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven."
Matthew 5:16.

Recall always that whenever good works do result from your activity the impulse and the enabling comes from your Heavenly Father. All the world is one in Him, He holds the whole complex structure in His hands and seeks the highest good of every single person in it. So there is a continual movement of contingency for good , depending on the right response of every single one of the Father's children. As the good path is set before each person so will his response reflect the well-being and happiness of those immediately around him and more subtly the deeper reaches of the Father's Kingdom.

Is it not foolish, then, for anyone who has been illumined within with a sense of purpose , enabled to carry out an act benefiting one and many - is it not foolish if then takes to himself the glory of success and the honour due to the illumining ad enabling power ?

Never lose sight of the truth that the light which is in you is the light of the eternal love of the Father, reflected in and through me by the power of Our Holy Spirit. And this light is the illuminating aspect of the Father's love, continuously creating and redeeming through My presence and offering the glorious world of His loving, all-embracing purpose. So ascribe to Him the glory and thanksgiving in all things.
