July 12th, 2026 | Shine for Jesus | Pastor Orlando Williams

The world doesn't need more darkness—it needs more light. Jesus said, "Let your light so shine before men, that they may see your good works and glorify your Father in heaven." Every day we have an opportunity to reflect Christ through our words, our actions, and our attitude. Whether it's showing kindness to a stranger, offering encouragement to someone who is struggling, or choosing integrity when no one is watching, our lives become a testimony that points others to Jesus. Our light is not meant to draw attention to ourselves, but to lead others to the One who is the Light of the world. As you go through this week, remember that even the smallest act of love can shine brightly in someone's darkest moment. You may never know how God uses your faithfulness to encourage a weary heart or inspire someone to seek Him. So don't hide the light God has placed within you. Shine with love. Shine with grace. Shine with hope. And let every good work bring glory to your Father in heaven. Have a blessed and Christ-filled week!
