Shining Star
Philippians 2:14-15 Do all things without murmurings and disputings: That ye may be blameless and harmless, the sons of God, without rebuke, in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world;
When I read this verse last night I was struck by a meaning that I had not seen before. In this crooked and depraved generation we stick out like sore thumbs. We are thought of as maybe weirdoes or goody two shoes, like we are some kind of wussy pushovers.
But to GOD we shine like stars in the universe. Yes, we stand out to HIM. HE thinks that we are beautiful as we obey HIM.
Strive to be a child of the KING and HE will see you as HIS light to this world as well.
