VERSE:
Do everything without complaining or arguing, so that you may
become blameless and pure, children of God without fault in a
crooked and depraved generation, in which you shine like stars in
the universe.
-- Philippians 2:14-15
http://www.SearchGodsWord.org/desk/?query=Philippians+2:14-15
THOUGHT:
We shouldn't be surprised that unbelievers around us have a
different set of values than we do. After all, a star isn't
surprised to find that it shines in the great expanse of darkness
surrounding it. You see, a star and a disciple of Jesus share one
basic purpose: shining our light in the darkness, no matter how
great that darkness!
PRAYER:
Holy and righteous LORD, I can only anticipate the day I see
your glory and stand in your presence. Please give me the courage
and integrity to be a light to those around me overwhelmed by the
darkness. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
