July 31 Shining Light-Matthew 5:13-16

I attend the Men’s Fellowship meeting every Wednesday morning at 7 am for a few years now. The reason I joined the meeting dated back about almost four years ago. One evening my wife drove home after visiting a friend. She came to a traffic light and then she suddenly jammed on the brake for no reason as she was on the green light and supposed to proceed. Couple seconds later, a TTC bus rushed through in front of her. The distance between her car and the bus was about six feet, she could even see the driver quite clearly. She was completely petrified and my son was in the back seat. When she retold the story that night, I was trembled with horror and had goose bumps on my skin. If she proceeded past the light, OMG that would be the end of it. I always said God has mercy on both of them and pray for them that someday they will receive Jesus as their own saviour. From that time onwards, I attend the Men’s Fellowship meeting ever since to show my gratitude to God that He preserves them and gets them a chance to receive Him. 

Whenever I have a chance to witness God I would come right up to show He is a merciful God and He is a light in our house.  With that perspective, I reflected more on Jesus’ teaching: “Let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven” (Matthew 5:16). I pray that my simple deed becomes a beacon and encourages others to shine their light for God as well.
