Encouragement
Matthew:5:16 -" Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven."
Two days back as I was heading out to do my errands for the day, I had the chance of meeting the elderly man who I have mentioned in a previously written article " An act of kindness"( you will find it on divinerhem.wordpress.com). It was so sweet of him to remember me. I was suprised to hear him talk about the flood relief work that my team and I did, I kind of stood wondering how he knew ( news travel fast) . He then blessed me for the work that I did and that feeling of being blessed by someone who you hardly know made happy. I felt content that I had the chance to serve the Lord in many ways and most of all I was happy that I was able to glorify my Father in heaven. I was glad that I was able to reflect Jesus in my deeds.
Letting our light shine before men is reflecting Jesus in our goods deeds towards mankind who are in need or affected during a natuarl disaster, etc... When we do that, our community, family, relatives and friends are witnessing the heart of Jesus and His love towards His children. Isn't it amazing to know how much God loves us?
What this elderly man told me made me so happy and that's when I realised that I have glorified my Father in heaven. It felt like I planted a seed and that seed grew to be noticed by others and the fruition that's attained glorifies my Father in heaven. I encourage you, my brothers and sisters to do the good deeds you do for the community, friends and family. We might receive credit for it or sometimes we might not but thats not important. Our greatest achievement is to glorifying our Father in heaven. May God will bless you all.
Dear Abba Father in heaven,
Lord, it brings us so much joy to know and witness Your love for us. Lord, help us to glorify You in every good deeds that we do to others. Lord, makes us Your instruments of peace, love, joy and hope. We thank You and love You. In Jesus name. Amen.
God bless
