Shine!

Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your Father which is in heaven. Matthew 5:16 KJV

Placing today's extract in context, you must first know who you are, before you can ever understand your assignment. Who you are is a function of the One controlling your thoughts and actions. Who you are is defined by your ownership. If God is the one in charge, your life will produce what looks like God. If the devil too is in charge, of course, your life will produce in line with who the devil is. Please be sure of who you are: eternity depends on the truth of that question.

When ownership is sorted, impact is sure. God would never live in a man and that man will be remain obscure. He will stand and minister before men, and make impact before men. The issue is that we measure impact by visibility and applause; not by how God measures it. We consider those on TV as more important that those  cleaning the floors in mission Fields so that men can come to know God. Purpose isn't about visibility; it is about doing what God is blessing, where he is blessing, before whom he has sent you to and the time of his bidding. If he says "Stay", you stay. If he says " Go", you go. Only then can your light shine as God intends, and all the glory is returned back to God who owns both the vessel and the assignment.

I was created and gifted to bring God  glory. Everything about me must speak to that purpose. His time of favour is here.
