This verse is so symbolic and powerful!
You wouldn't hide a literal light. That would be pointless.
And it makes even less sense to hide the Light of Christ!
We are to be beacons for Him!
Beacons serve their purpose when they shine.
And we should always reflect Christ's love and goodness and mercy at all times.

ReplyDeleteThat is a pretty lamp!!! I love oil lamps. I have this verse framed in our school room. It is such a wonderful verse. I use it when our power goes out around here to help teach the kiddos just how much of a light we are in this world and how it would be without Christ. Dark and scary!
