You are the light of the world. A city that is set on a hill cannot be hidden. Nor do they light a lamp and put it under a basket, but on a lampstand, and it gives light to all who are in the house. Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven. [Matthew 5:14-16]
That's how God sees you: light of the world! The verse says let your light shine, not produce the light. In other words, don't try to do good works; let Jesus shine in you, and this will naturally translate into good works!
Jesus is your light. He says, Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” (John 8:12). The way to possess this light is to rest in Jesus!
How? By redirecting your mind to focus on what Jesus has done for you at the cross. Those who are forgiven much love much! (Luke 7:47)
