Being a Light!

Hello Fellow Bloggers...


One thing I am very proud of is the fact that over the last 18 months, I earned myself the reputation of "The Christian guy" in class. I am so thankful that I have been able to be a light (or at least try) to my class mates. Even the instructors know me as the christian guy. One day an instructor told the class to watch their fowl language in front of guests, then he yelled out sarcastically "Especially you Robert". And the other day I was in the school lobby on a phone call when I overheard another student asking around for me. I heard him ask the school cleaning lady, "have you seen Robert around? you know, the Christian guy...". Yesterday, all the guys in class were talking about going to a strip club after graduation when one of my classmates said, "Oh wait, Robert cant' go because Jesus won't like it" followed by classroom laughter. I must admit those were some pretty proud moments for me.

"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. In the same way, let your light shine before men, that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.

- Matthew 5: 14-16

Are you being a light?
