Be Holy and Let Your Light Shine!

As Christians, we must strive to live holy lives because we're commanded to, but also we should want to, so that we will be more like Jesus, our Savior. That is how the world will see Jesus - by Him living in us. We are lights of the world. The moment we became a Christian, we became a light. That is our job. The problem is that sometimes we don't want to be a light....or we don't want to shine too brightly. But we must. Living a holy life means we must shine brightly. The world needs our light! SHINE!

Therefore, with minds that are alert and fully sober, set your hope on the grace to be brought to you when Jesus Christ is revealed at his coming. As obedient children, do not conform to the evil desires you had when you lived in ignorance. But just as he who called you is holy, so be holy in all you do; for it is written: “Be holy, because I am holy.”  
1 Peter 1:13-16

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
