One of our recent homeschool field trips involved visiting a light house. Inside the Assistant Light Keepers quarters was this actual light from a tower. I was amazed at the size and clearness of the glass. The brass was shiny and clean. It was beautiful to behold. On one wall was detailed information of how the small light inside is bent and magnified by the glass lens. As we read and learned about how this worked, I was struck with the thought about God wanting me to let my light shine before others. No matter how small and insignificant it may seem (like the lamp in a lighthouse), God uses His lens to magnify and glorify Himself. I'm a tiny little lamp surrounded by an almighty Lens - God Himself! Praise be to His name!
Matthew 5:16 - In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.
