Light

After Matthew 5:10-16 

To be called a light
in the world is to be
called to a singular
purpose. A light is
intended to shine,
not hidden under
a bush. A light is
like a city on a hill,
because it’s visible
to miles to anyone
who looks up.
A light is a lamp
for the world and
a lamp for the house,
and it shines to all
and for all within.
The children sing
this little light of mine,
but the fact is we are
the light,
the lights.
