Latest / Why I Believe / Faithful Friday S2E3: How Can You Reflect Christ's Light?
Transcript
- 0:01Welcome to Faithful Friday.
- 0:03Today we'll spend a few moments in Scripture, reflection, and prayer.
- 0:08If you're driving or unable to pause right now, simply listen and come back to this reflection later when you can give it your full attention.
- 0:16Today's scripture comes from the Gospel of Matthew, chapter 5, verses 13 through 16.
- 0:24Salt and light.
- 0:26You are the salt of the earth, but if salt has lost its taste,
- 0:31How shall its saltiness be restored?
- 0:34It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trodden underfoot by men.
- 0:41You are the light of the world, a city set on a hill cannot be hidden, nor do men light a lamp and put it under a bushel, but on a stand, and it gives light to all in the house.
- 0:53Let your light so shine before men that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
- 1:04How can I reflect Christ's light to someone this week?
- 1:10I'm going to invite you to pause this recording now.
- 1:13Spend a few moments talking with God about what you heard.
- 1:17Ask him what he wants you to understand, where he is calling you to grow, and what step he wants you to take next.
- 1:25When you're ready, come back and we'll close together in prayer.
- 1:35Welcome back.
- 1:36Let's pray the prayer Jesus taught us.
- 1:40Our Father, who art in heaven, hallowed be thy name, thy kingdom come, thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven.
- 1:50Give us this day our daily bread, and forgive us our trespasses, as we forgive those who trespass against us, and lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
- 2:03Amen.
- 2:04As you go into your day, carry this scripture with you.
- 2:07Ask yourself: this week, where do you see God showing up in your life?
- 2:12Thank you for joining me for Faithful Friday.
- 2:15I'll see you next week.
