The Light of the World

Thoughts on our third day on quarantine.

In the scripture found on Matthew 5:14-16 Jesus wants us to be the light of the world. He said: "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. In order words, be a good example.

A thought that came to me was how today we had our sacrament meeting at home and felt so blessed to have the knowledge of the restored gospel but it would have done us any good if we had not turn on the light by holding a meeting to bless the sacrament, it requires effort. It also made me think how many other people are doing the same. We all should be a little light in this dark world.

As I compare the light within us kind of like the light fixture in our home is that in order for it work it needs to be turn on. It has a switch for it to work. To light up a room, requires action. We need to put the effort as well if we want to be the light of the world.

Con amor,
Vero
