Scripture Reading: Romans 1:1-27
Focus Verse: Romans 1:5 “Through Christ, God has given us the privilege and authority as apostles to tell Gentiles everywhere what God has done for them, so that they will believe and obey Him, bringing glory to His name.
I have heard the definition that "darkness is the absence of light.” God is Light and His light is in all those who believe and follow Him. As God’s children we should let our lights shine in this dark world. Jesus said to His followers, “You are the light of the world, let your light so shire before men, that they may see your good works and glorify you Father in heaven.” Matthew 5:14. All of creation was designed to bring God glory. Romans 1:20. We need to let the light of Christ shine through us, just as it shines through all of creation. This world is so lost. Romans 1:22 says, “Claiming to be wise, they instead became utter fools.” The world has a great need, and that is for Christians to proclaim the good news and let our light shine. We should not be ashamed of Christ. God has chosen us to give this good news of the Gospel. God loves the world, and He wants every person to give Him glory.
