Are You Leaving The Light On?

In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:16 NIV Bible Gateway

There is a famous motel chain who advertises ‘we’ll leave the lights on for you’ and it made me think of legacy. What are you going to leave behind so others may come to a personal relationship with Jesus? 

Martyred missionaries often leave legacy of others coming to Christ through their testimony. A young Christian teen killed in Columbine school shooting of 1999 had several come to the altar and accept Christ at his funeral. He lived for Christ on earth and his testimony in death had others come to know him. 

What do you spend your life doing that will make a kingdom impact? Keep in mind don’t do things to get applauded or noticed and if that comes to God be the glory but when you are gone what will you legacy be and will Jesus’ light be shining at your celebration of life aka funeral? 

PRAYER: Father I want to make sure what I do under my roof and outside of my roof brings glory to you and help me make a lasting impact for Christ. Help me stop doing things that draw others from you. In Jesus’ name. Amen.
