“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven.” Matthew 5:16
A testimony was shared of a Christian sister whose parents-in-law were Muslims. They both came visiting her family during a Ramadan month.
For twenty consecutive days while they were there, she woke up at 4.00am daily to prepare and serve them breakfast cheerfully and joyfully.
One cold Sunday morning, the mother in-law dressed up and said she was going to church with them. She did go with them and enjoyed the service. At the end of the service, she gave her heart to Jesus.
So without ‘overwhelming’ the mother-in-law with preaching or bible quotations daily, she won the heart of the woman with her shining life.
Shining the light through our godly lifestyle, character, integrity, patience, God’s love, selfless sacrifice, etc may be all that the people need to come to Jesus.
Are you a shining Christian in your home, workplace and the church?
Father, please help me to keep shining the light IJN.
Shalom!
Father, please help me to keep being a shining christian everywhere I go in Jesus Name.
