Psalm 26
Job 25:1-6, 27:1-6
Revelation 14:1-7, 13
Matthew 5:13-20
Matthew 5:13-20
"You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid."(v.14)
Great words exhorting those who hear to let the light of Christ show through our lives - like a city on a hill that cannot be hid. And there are these words that Jesus says..."let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven".(v.16) Jesus seems not to be overly moved by the faith vs. works thing. He talks like they are inextricably linked to each other. When we embrace all that Christ has done for us, it leads us to want to be that city on a hill, to point beyond ourselves to God.
Sports Round-up
Well, the Reds lost two of three to the Cards over the weekend, but we are still up by 7 games. UK handled U of L 23-16 - seemed like it was going to be a little easier than it turned out but it's always good to beat U of L. Ohio State got it all started on Thursday night by rolling to an easy win over Marshall. Pretty much a good sports weekend.
