In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:16

The Carlsbad Caverns will be a destination for a lot of families in summer. You may have been there and remember: The tour guide leads you into a large underground chamber. Then, he turns off all the lights. It’s so dark, literally, you can’t see the hand in front of your face.

Then, with the flick of his wrist, the guide strikes a match and suddenly a tiny flame lights up the huge underground room.

That is the way light is in darkness. And that is the call for you and me in this dark world. You are God’s flame of witness to those around you who can’t see a thing – they need the truth and light of the Bible.
