Green Light Means Go

You are the light of the world.  A city set on a hill cannot be hidden; nor does anyone light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house.

Let your light shine before men in such a way that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father who is in heaven.

Matthew 5:14-16

There are times when we want to shut up that we need to speak up.  It might be when someone is being bullied or harassed, or it might be when we see someone about to make a huge mistake.  It is at those times when the light of the love of God and the power of the Gospel of Jesus Christ can radically change a situation and we are charged to light the way. 

We are not called to be stealth Christians.   God has given us the boldness and courage to do good works and preach the Gospel.
