O God, may the words of my mouth, the actions of my life, and the influence of my deeds show others your holiness and grace and lead them to acknowledge your majesty and might. In Jesus name I pray. Amen.

Matthew 5:14-16 [Jesus said] "You are the light of the world. Let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven."   Thoughts on today's verse   Our life will not be neutral. We will either point others away from God or show them that allegiance to God is important. Let's make an intentional effort today to shine the light of God's holiness and grace in all we do and say.
