A city on a hill





Let your light shine



When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, "I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life."

And we too are called to be lights in this world, for a city 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.

Yes we too are lights in this world and God is calling us to shine 

To show love and compassion 

To speak encouragement and bring words of hope

To reach out to those in need

To use the gifts and talents that He has given us

To celebrate the diversity that He has created

Yes God wants us to know who we are and what he wants us to become

For He calls us to make a difference together

And as we shine

To know that He is always with us

Walking at our side 

For we are His children

And He is calling us to shine.
