Why let your light shine?


Not sure if any of you wondered why my post was about let your light shine? Here's my answer to all of you who are baffled beyond any understanding!

This world has never been a very wonderful world, with or without Christ.. in fact if you read more and more about the past and history, you'll know that this world is very dark.. in deed the darkness had time to breed itself.. ok let me break it down and not speak metaphorically for you.

Humans, make the world... Humans have the tendency to be tempted and minds and thoughts changed through, ways we cannot understand, why i say this in these terms is basically, we can be educated by sin, and by the evil spirits in this world very easily, why? it's in our nature la... who needs to tell a kid to lie? or to steal? no one... if the kid thinks he wants the toy that don't belong to him, He'll go grab it off the weaker kid...

yeap looking familiar to the world eh? personally nothing changes as we go on in life, people try to backstab, lust kicks in and we go sleep around, with no more morale values in us... sometimes we are rejected but we know we are stronger, just like kids we take what we want, rob people, slash them,. shoot them, rape them... and whatever else we want to do.. somewhat like that kid,.. who stole your toy when you were in nusery in a grander scale. this is how the 'world' is dark..

so then you ask, is it getting darker? personally, it might seem like it's getting darker, but heck I believe it's been dark all along, just the media blew it up in a grand scale, and in a sense, gave new ideas to those who might not have been brave enough or smart enough to rob/rape/sleep around/do this do that...

(wow Chris this is getting too deep, and dark) yeap dark it is! ok so let me get to the let your light shine part!

sorry to those who have yet to believe, but i think if you followed me from the beggining till now you will understand everything I say =)

So you see this verse:"John 1:5 The light shines in the darkness, but the darkness has not understood it."

the light is actually my dear friend, brother and saviour, Jesus Christ... He shone through the darkness of this world (yeap sin and those spirits that u know you can't explain why you can just lie for no reason) and of course as the verse states the darkness didn't understand...

During the time of Jesus, you could tell He was a light in isreal.. so many people fled to Him, even the romans could see hope life and light in him... so many fled to Him, even the pharasies realised it! and sadly enough, they got angry about it too (:O a sense of darkness? but why angry?) so... cut the story short, jesus died and rose again for us later on!

so those who accepted Christ now have the Holy Spirit in them shinning from inside out, thus you have the light... same kind of light that Christ has! But wait.. you must be thinking oh know what if I do wrong things.. I'm stuck to this rule this regulation.. blablabla, no no! it's wrong! tell me if you had some one save your life and gave you the best, through every time.. He save dyou from being a prostitute by force, provided you with a house, a maid to clean it.. everything you needed.. would you go to Him and give Him trouble? or would you yourself return to the place where you were almost forced to prostitution? no right? But you would be so thankful to that person, and somewhat love that person for what they are doing for you!

It's the same way in Christ, you won't follow rules and bolt down to them just because you have to, but because when you walk the road with him, you'll find out more and more, yes no doubt you might fall, but you see there is still hope, Christ will come down with His hand and uphold you again... when you realised, hey the love of christ is so amazing, when you experience it, and realise.. why is this world so damn horrible and how on earth did Christ do it? and then look at yourself, freak I'm not that good either, then look at Christ.. you will finally realise.. hey... I'm loved tremendously.. I don't wanna go back to that dumpster...

then, you will have this light in you.. wiht the realization of the love of God, you will be able to love others, the way Christ loves you, coz you realise, how much your loved, and How much Christ loves them too... so light your light shine, the light of Christ, which loves all!
