CHILDREN OF LIGHT!

For you were once darkness, but now you are light in the Lord. Live as children of light. -Ephesians 5:8

Sometimes we wonder, how can we be living in a cruel world filled with pain and sin? We wonder why we have to suffer, why we have to be different. God has given us the answer in His Holy Book; He has called us to be children of light. This passage is very clear and makes lots of sense.
A light in the darkness really stands out. It never blends, and it is the center of attention. God has chosen us to be His light in a world filled with darkness. He wants us to stand out to tell others about Jesus. The Bible says in Ephesians 5:15, "Be very careful, then, how you live- not as unwise but as wise." We as Children of Light must know what to do in times of temptation.
You do not need a sign on your shirt that says that you are a Christian. People must know just by looking at how you dress, how you talk, and your attitude. In a public school, it is very difficult to have courage to be a Child of Light, but that is why it is always good to talk to your parents or any adult you trust. If not, just pray to God. He will be your guide.
