I.B.S. #43

Matthew 5:16

- "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."

This little light of mine I need to let it shine. Whatever we are doing, we need to realize that we are representing something. When we go on trips with our school, we are representing them, when we go on trips with our church we are representing them, but if we look past our school, church, parents, sports teams, we see that all Christians are representatives of Christ. As far as I can tell, all of Gods other creations, meaning everything else but humans, I can look at and say wow an amaizing God made that, do you see how beautiful that sunset is, or that volcanoe is, or how the humming bird functions. Now, don't get me wrong, the human body is beautifully made, it's incredible to think about all that goes on in our bodies in just three seconds. However, it's sad in a sence that God created everything for a purpose, and us humans are the only ones to mess up. We're the ones who seek sin and deny God for all that He has blessed us with. Then again, perhaps I am looking at man in the wrong way to think that we are all a bunch of screw ups. Perhaps I need to be looking at the heart of man like our Lord does.

Pray that God will help me to see man in this way.
