Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father. – Matt 5:16
Let your light so shine – The purpose of light is to illuminate and expose. If the light is hidden, it is no longer useful. We need to be exposed before men and see us as true believers.
they may see your good works – As we walk in the light, let our good works be known to the outside world and our whole conduct should influence others that they may be brought to honor GOD.
glorify your Father – Influencing others is not simply that we may be seen and known, but we should be witness for GOD to bring glory to our Heavenly Father.
The duty of a Christian is not just to be holy at GOD’s sight but also to touch the lives of everyone around us for the extension of HIS kingdom.
