Our Lighthouse
"Ye are the light of the world, a city that is set on a hill cannot be hid."
Matthew 5: 14
We are all called to be bright lights in a dark world. When a city is set on a hill, the
light brightly shines for miles, for all to see. We are to let our light
shine that others may see Jesus and He will be glorified.
Light is symbolic of truth and life and without Jesus in our
life we would have no light. He lights up our life with his love and we are called to share this light with others.
Jesus is our "Lighthouse" for which we give thanks unto God.
Because of the darkness of sin he came into this world to bring love,
light and hope; that we might have eternal life. Our vessels are likened unto a ship sailing on the seas of time. Just as a ship must
have the guidance of light to navigate it's course, we must also have the light of
our Lord to guide us as we walk through this world.
There are many today who walk in the darkness of sin.
Many have not received this marvelous light and have no hope for the future.
We have light within and when all glory is given to the Lord, God's light will draw others to Jesus.
May we always seek to be 'light bearers' and realize we can do nothing without
this light of the Lord. His light illuminates as it warms hearts with truth, love and life.
God is light, life, and love. With Him, we can do all things by faith.
May we be 'beacons of truth' as we seek to let our lights shine daily.
Blessings in Christ,

Light of The World
The light of the world is Jesus
Who died upon the old rugged cross,
This light of the world brightens our life,
It reaches every tribe and nation to redeem the lost.
His light within will defeat the power of sin
And guide one on their way,
He is the light in the darkest night,
Who brings new hope and a better day.
Share God's light as it is life and love
Sent down from the Father above,
He will always direct your steps
As he guides you with heaven's holy dove.

"Vision is the art of seeing the invisible." ....Jonathan Swift
"Every man should use his intellect, not as he uses his lamp in the study, only for his own seeing, but as the lighthouse uses its lamps, that those afar off on the seas may see the shining, and learn their way."
