Day 290 Let Your Light Shine | Matthew 5:14
Manage episode 514147883 series 3543940
A single line from the Sermon on the Mount can change an entire day: “You are the light of the world.” We unpack that claim with fresh eyes and a practical path forward—how to be visible without being noisy, courageous without being combative, and kind without growing quiet or small. The focus is simple and strong: light does not argue with darkness; it simply shines. That vision reshapes how we move through work, family, and friendships, turning ordinary moments into steady beacons of hope.
We start with Matthew 5:14 and draw out what a “city on a hill” looks like in modern life: integrity that holds, compassion that moves toward pain, and presence that can be found when someone is searching. Then we offer one specific challenge—name a person who needs encouragement and reach out today. A text, a call, or a handwritten note can shift a heart and remind someone they are seen. Along the way, we pray for bold, loving light and share a joyful chorus to keep the hope warm and human.
If you’re hungry for spiritual clarity, daily encouragement, and small steps that make a real difference, this short, reflective episode is for you. You’ll leave with a clear next move, a grounded prayer, and a reminder that visibility matters more than volume. Subscribe for more daily wisdom, share this with someone who needs a lift, and leave a quick review to help others find the light.
Still Standing: Living After the Silence, the Storm, and the Shattered Heart is the powerful second book in the Standing Series. Building on the best-selling Struggle to Standing, this new release guides you through life after heartbreak with hope, healing, and faith. Now available on Amazon in paperback, hardcover.
