Extract
Jesus said, “No one lights a lamp and then covers it with a jar or puts it under a bed, but puts it on a lampstand so that those who come in can see the light”. (Luke 8:16)
Thought
Everyone I meet today will be guided by my “light”. The question is, will they see Jesus’ teachings in my words and actions?
Reflection
Lord Jesus, give me the strength and courage to stand up and be seen. May I be a shining example to all whom I meet today.
Prayer: Teach Us (St Ignatius of Loyola)
Teach us Good Lord;
To serve you as you deserve;
To give and not to count the cost;
To fight and not to heed the wounds;
To toil and not to seek for rest;
To labour and to ask for no reward,
Save that of knowing we do your will.
