“To put off your old self, which belongs to your former manner of life and is corrupt through deceitful desires, and to be renewed in the spirit of your minds, and to put on the new self, created after the likeness of God in true righteousness and holiness.”
(Ephesians 4:22-24 NIV)
From Ghandi. “Be the change you want to see in the world.”
You might ask how can I change the world? I would answer that by saying that one small spark can start a huge forest fire. Be that spark.
“Do not conform to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewal of your mind.” (Romans 12:2 NIV). This verse encourages people to be changed by a new way of thinking so they can discern God’s will.
“Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:16 NIV). This verse encourages people to live a life of integrity and share their testimony with others.
“Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of lights, with whom there is no variation or shadow due to change.” (James 1:17 NIV). This verse reminds people that God is in control and remains with us even when the world seems uncertain.
My advice to you is your to let your light shine so others will be drawn to you. Be a lighthouse for the lost. People are hurting. People need a refuge where they can go to be told about our loving Savior. Keep Jesus in the forefront always. Keep moving forward, and don’t look back. Remember what happened to Lot’s wife when she looked back.
Have a great day, everyone.
