Let Your Light Shine
“You are the salt of the
earth. But if the salt
loses its saltiness, how
can it be made salty
again? It is no longer
good for anything,
except to be thrown out
and trampled underfoot.
“You are the light of the
world. A town built on a
hill cannot be hidden.
Neither do people light a
lamp and put it under a
bowl.
Instead they put it on
its stand, and it gives
light to everyone in
the house. In the
same way, let your
light shine
before others, that they
may see your good
deeds and glorify your
Father in heaven.”
(Matthew 5:13–16 NIV11)
