Matthew 12:35 The good person brings good things out of a good treasure, and the evil person brings evil things out of an evil treasure.
It's a message as simple as the things you learned in Kindergarten, and just as important. Walk the walk, don't just talk the talk. Christianity is about confessing your belief in Jesus as God's Messiah sent to bring light into dark places, yes. But Christianity is also about being that light in dark places.
When someone is baptized at All Saints, whether an infant or an adult or anywhere in between, they are told "Let your light so shine before others that they see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." How's your light shining today?
In Christ,
Pastor Seth
