Sunday, July 19th. Today's cherished Nugget from guest blogger Pastor Bill.

Matthew Henry wrote a famous Bible Commentary. As a poor and unknown young man, he wished to marry a girl whose father was wealthy and who did not approve of the marriage. The father argued that, although Henry was a good scholar and an excellent preacher, “they did not even know where he came from.”

The daughter had a ready answer. “But father,” she said, “we know where he is going, and I want to go with him.” Her father was silenced.

What about us, do our friends and family know where we are going as far as eternity is concerned?

Based on how we act and live would that make them want to spend eternity with us more? Jesus encourages us to

“Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works, and glorify your father which is in heaven.”
(Matthew 5:16)

"God, daily let me be the light in someone else’s world.
Amen."

Don’t hide your light under a bushel....
