You are the light in darkness

Matthew 5:14-15 You are the light of the world,a city 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....Its amazing how the holy spirit ministers to us and teaches us,last night i was watching an african movie with my friend and when the movie was done i went in my room and knelt on the floor as though to pray but was reading the bible,what i was reading wasn't registering to me even though deep within me i really wanted to read God's word because i knew that God wanted to tell me something,so i walked out of my room went to the living room and sat there with the living room lights off and was using the reflection from the hallway when my friend came out of the shower she asked"eh why are you sitting in darkness"i responded by a small laugh(i don't know how to describe the laugh)and then said to her Jesus said i am the light of the world and if anyone follows me he will never walk in darkness but will walk in the light and as long as i am in the world i am the light of the world John 9:5.My friend responded by thank you for that word i really needed it.I give glory to God because he ministered that word by his spirit through&to me too.Sometimes God will place us in a place where he will speak to us only if we be still,the holy spirit will minister through and to us when we develop that hunger and thirst for his word.Every believer in the Lord Jesus is that light that needs to shine in this world,Jesus is still here with us He has never left us because He now lives and dwells in us by his holy spirit,so children of God shouldn't run away when darkness come but rather take their stand and be that beacon because greater is He who is in us that he who is in the world,you will be amazed at how much light you will shine when you walk in a room full of darkness,you will give light to those who don't even know how light shines.Look at the sun in the skies when the sky is clear blue the sun will shine in its brilliance,when it is covered but the clouds the light is hidden by the clouds we are also like the sun up in the sky.Be exceedingly blessed and go be the light in darkness let it shine so bright because it is Christ Jesus shining in you.
