torchbearers...

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

Today we are celebrating the Olympic torch relay in our city.

The duty of the torchbearer is to hold the light high...
and pass it on.

I'm just thinking...not only should we as followers of Jesus be 'letting our light shine'...
we should also be passing it along.

Let's hold our torch high...carry it proudly...and pass it on to others.

I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ, for it is the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believeth...
Romans 1:16

  1. If not for God, I have no idea where my life would have taken me. He has protected me in so many ways on so many days...So, I would gladly light three torches...for God the Father, Christ the King and the Holy Spirit. Lovely post.
