Luke 8:16-18

Jesus said to the crowds:

‘No one lights a lamp to cover it with a bowl or to put it under a bed. No, he puts it on a lamp-stand so that people may see the light when they come in.

Once you are touched by God, you will find that sometimes you have to fight to be on the lamp stand. Isn’t our whole struggle the fight to keep the light burning? The scriptures say nothing of the winds and demons that will try to steal your joy. But church we are aware that our number one job is keeping the flame alive.

Today may we be the shield that keeps others alive.
