“The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness can never extinguish it.” John 1:5. As men, we are the reflection of God’s light in this world. But what kind of light are we, and how are we using our light?
“Your word is a lamp to guide my feet and a light for my path.” Psalm 119:105. When we are on the path, we reflect God’s light in this broken and dark world. As Christian men, it is our responsibility to be the reflection of God’s light to the path. We must let His light shine through us in all areas of our lives. In our relationships, our health, through our work practices and in our character. Being on the path is not about living a better life because we want to be successful in our jobs, physically fit, or any other personal gain. Living a life on the path means that we are a living reflection of God’s light.
Even in the chaos and darkness of this world, He is always a light for us. We have been designed, chosen, and created to be light in this world. It is our mission if we choose to surrender to God and let His light shine through us. We are not just a light in the darkness; we also help light the path. By living a life on the path, we bring light to it. We are allowing others to witness our examples and draw near to Him.
