Jesus said, "Your light must shine in the sight of men, so that seeing your good works they may give praise to your Father in Heaven."
Matthew 5:16

Let no child of the Father who has expressed allegiance to Him in their heart and mind and living take upon himself the praise which naturally proceeds from his commitment and faithfulness. As the power to become and to do those things which are good and beautiful and praiseworthy has issued from the Father's all-embracing, dynamic love so must the praise redound to His glory. Not only is this right and just but self-glorification is destructive of progress in the spirit. Also the Father seeks to reach out through His faithfully committed children to those who are yet outside the fold.

The Father seeks to penetrate every fastness of unbelief and perversity with His light and His love. Our saving grace and sanctifying, life-giving power enables, enlightens, perfects and directs all who respond to the light which probes all darkness, challenging the response of all who turn from it, offering enlightenment to all who seek to walk in the power of it.

Always recall that I am the light of the world. I am the way, the truth and the life.
