WEEKLY WORD

When others throw shade…KEEP ON SHINING!

Lesson to Live By:
Don’t ever dim your light just because others don’t like your shine! Let them buy sunglasses! Shine Shine Shine!

Matthew 5:14-16 (NLT)

14 “You are the light of the world—like a city on a hilltop that cannot be hidden. 15 No one lights a lamp and then puts it under a basket. Instead, a lamp is placed on a stand, where it gives light to everyone in the house. 16 In the same way, let your good deeds shine out for all to see, so that everyone will praise your heavenly Father.

Rev. James A. Simmons, Senior Pastor
