“But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shineth more and more unto the perfect day” (Prov. 4:18; KJV).    

If the path ahead of you doesn’t seem very bright at the moment, be encouraged by this verse which says it WILL get brighter and brighter. In addition, in Proverbs 13:9 we are told that the light within the righteous brightens ours faces. So, not only will your path get brighter but so will you.

We also see this in the New Testament in Philippians 2:15. We are told that we shine as bright lights in this wicked world. Jesus is the light and we have him in us, he is our light (John 17:23; John 8:12). Jesus taught that we are not to hide our light but let it shine, just like you would not switch a flash light on and then hide it in a box (Matt 5:15)!

We have opportunities to let our light shine wherever we find ourselves, whether it be at work, in the neighborhood or in the marketplace. So, let your light shine today (Matt 5:16) and make a difference in someone's life (Acts 13:47).
