Let Your Light Shine

Let Your Light Shine "Never be lacking in zeal, but keep your spiritual fervor, serving the Lord." Romans 12:11 Today, you will go out into the world, and will be faced with making the right choices. If you are a businessman, you will make choices that will define you as a leader, and the choices you make are not just about you. They’re about the positive impact you can have on your organization, your community, and beyond. The world needs everyday leaders, who will choose to make it a better place. You can make these choices on your own, or you can ask God to give you the wisdom and understanding to make good choices. If you try to do it by yourself, you may make some good choices, but they may not be ones that benefit the people around you, as your selfish instinct will begin to come into play, and eventually the outcomes may not be what you had in mind. God wants you to be the light to the world where ever you are, even in your business life. The role God wants you to play is to be a fisher of men in all that you do. You cannot just go to church on Sunday morning, and think that you have done your part. If you are truly a follower of God, your light will shine brightly where ever you are. People should know that you follow God, as they should see your actions, speech and behavior as a constant reminder that God is in control of your life. You have many opportunities to witness for God throughout your day, and you must take advantage of all of them. This is what God expects from you. Always remember that God's greatest commandment is to love Him, and also to love others as yourself. Don't let this day go by, and not let someone know about your God. Let your light shine brightly, to show others that God is in control of your life, and that He can also be their guide. My Daily Devotional Volume Six June 13 Robert William Brock, Jr.
