Spring Fever

Though there is a chance of snow on Saturday, spring has come to Colorado. Spring brings new life out of a seasonally dark time of year. That is our desire, spiritually, for Colorado and,more specifically, Lowry.

This spiritually dark place needs new life. And this renewal can only come through Christ in us. Matt. 5:16 tells us to allow the light of Christ to shine through us so that men will turn to God.

Where is the place you are bringing the light? How bright does Christ shine through you? Does your life point others to worship God?

The Message shares Matthew 5:14-16 like this, “”Here’s another way to put it: You’re here to be light, bringing out the God-colors in the world. God is not a secret to be kept. We’re going public with this, as public as a city on a hill. If I make you light-bearers, you don’t think I’m going to hide you under a bucket, do you? I’m putting you on a light stand. Now that I’ve put you there on a hilltop, on a light stand—shine! Keep open house; be generous with your lives. By opening up to others, you’ll prompt people to open up with God, this generous Father in heaven.”
