It's Getting Dark Outside

The world we live in today appears to be growing darker and darker by the minute. Tragic events nationally as well as internationally have increased in momentum and disaster seems to be around every corner. Lately, before you can come to grips with one calamity, another one has overlapped. Everything from natural disasters to massive killings is occurring. Just a few years ago, life didn't seem to have as great of a downward pull. But just as the word of God has stated, these things must come to pass (Mark 13:8). Every day we are living in the midst of people that are confused, hurting, and thirsting for peace. And every day as born-again believers we are encouraged to let our light shine. In (Matthew 5:14-16), Jesus urges us to let our light shine forth brightly before men and for us not to hide it. Therefore, shine forth your light at school, work, and play. Let it shine everywhere you go so that people can see God through you. All hope is not lost for this world, even in its darker state. Jesus, the light of the world, came to bring hope even when all hope seems to be lost. If Christ is in us, then the light should be shining through us. Be bold and dispel the darkness by letting your light shine, let it shine, let it shine!
